In “Everyday Use” and “The Story of an Hour” the information appears to be reliable. Even though the points of view are different, the narrator is able to convince the reader that the information is real or true. "Everyday Use" by Alice Walker is told in first person narration, from the point of view of the main character, "Mama" or "Mrs. Johnson". She tells us a story about a visit from her daughter, even though her view is one sided and her second grade education limits her ability to understand the thought process of her educated daughter, the reader believes what she says.

Impact of Afrida on the narrator’s life in “Family Furnishings” by Alice Munro In Alice Munro’s “Family Furnishings”, the narrator is shown distaning herself from Alfrida as she grows up to be a mature woman. Even after carrying a large amount of animosity against alfrida, the narrator still admires her as she did in her younger years: “This moment was amazing, as if Afrida had transformed us into new people” (Munro289).Admiration and certain similarities between Alfrida and the narrator are present in the text from their personal life to their career life and also their daily actions are in similar pattern to each other.

Attempt on ignoring Alfrida and not seeing her for the rest of her life fails when the narrator pays a visit while Alfrida becomes ill.

He's easily the best person ever to come into my life,” writes Danni Stratus in an article for the Experience Project. Danni’s gay father and her may not have been related by blood, but Danni’s dad loved her more than either of her birth parents did. He supported her and he was always there for her. Danni’s story is an example that shows even if you are not related by blood, you can still be family and love one another. The book The Color Purple, by Alice Walker, uses the relationships between Shug and Celie, Sofia and Squeak, and Nettie and Corrine’s family to prove that being family doesn’t mean one is related by blood, but that being family means one is accepted and supported by people who love them.
