Eudora Welty - Powerhouse

Eudora Welty was an upcoming writer in the early nineteen hundreds. She seems to have been a very smart woman. She went to several colleges. She also wrote for a newspaper and worked for a radio station. I did not really like the story Powerhouse that she wrote though. It did not really keep my attention. To me it was very hard to understand. Powerhouse was in a band. It is a little obvious that there was racism in the band members by them saying that "They were in Negrotown." They then go to a bar where one of the band members talk about one of their spouses being dead and the telegram that they got about it. Like I said I didn't get much from this story.
