The short story “ The Most Handsome Drowned Man” by Grabiel Garcias Marquez shows how people interact with beautiful and unexpected things. And also how people make stories about things they don’t know about. I believe that the professor assigned this short story as the first reading because it shows how some people have creativity, are curious, and interact with unexpected things differently and how they improve their lives because of that. An example of their life improvements is when the people were thinking of making their house door, and ceiling bigger, so Esteban’s memory can pass easily. And other people can stay the same as before when an unexpected thing happens. An example of that is when the men were thinking about why the women were putting so many things on Esteban. He will be the food of a shark anyway.

Hi Angel Jimenez, Good point about pointing out the advancements and adjustments that the villagers made to help in order to help improve their overall lives. I also agree with why the professor had assigned this reading to us, as it shows that creativity and curiosity can go a long way.
