Reading Notes W2: Coyote Cooks His Daughter Part B

• One of the first things I noticed was the amount of repetition that was used in the story.
• "So he kept circling around in a wash, his tail went switch-switch-switch, gallop-gallop-gallop he went, he kept coming along running. And his daughte3r kept coming slowly behind him. So Coyote look-look-looked behind him, his ears he twitch-twitch-twitched And he kept coming, coming, coming, he was jump-jump-jumping, he trot-trot-trotted." (Cupeno, "Coyote Cooks His Daughter", 52).
• The story was very interesting, the plot was about Coyote who went hunting for a very long time with his daughter and how he didn't find anything so he killed his daughter and started cooking her. While he was cooking her, Old Coyote noticed the daughters spirit and burned down Coyote's house while he was in there and he eventually died.
• It was a noticeably short story that seemed to end abruptly. 
• It was interesting how the daughter kept repeating the same phrase after she died and how Coyote's wife didn't notice that her daughter was dead and that her husband was burning.
