From On Being a Cripple / Nancy Mairs
First, the matter of semantics. I am a cripple. I choose this word to name me. I choose this word to name me. I choose from among several possibilities, the most common of which are "handicapped" and "disabled." I made the choice a number of years ago, without thinking, unaware of my motives for doing so. Even now, I’m not sure what those motives are, but I recognize that they are complex and not entirely flattering. People- crippled or not- wince at the word "cripple," as they do not "handicapped" or "disabled." Perhaps I want them to wince. I want them to see me as a tough customer, one to whom the fates/gods/viruses have not been kind, but who can face the brutal truth of her existence squarely. As a cripple, I swagger.
Answer:
From "On Being A Cripple" by Nancy Mairs
The claim is "I am a cripple."
Explanation:
This claim by Nancy is an assertion by her that something is. Usually, as Nancy is making the declaration, she does not provide any evidence to support her affirmation. This is because the readers of this story cannot ascertain why Nancy concludes that she is crippled. If some evidence is given, the claim remains subjective as it is the narrator's personal opinion. After all, she can still claim that she is divinely and extremely blessed in her physical condition.
Nancy Mairs (1986) wrote this short story to question the imprecise descriptions that society has been coining to label some people who are not like others in physical look, as if lessening the truth or bluntness about a person's condition could lessen the pains. For Nancy, she disagrees totally. Instead, she finds meaning and humor on being described as a cripple, the plain truth about her physical condition. She states that she is simply physically crippled. No euphemism should be intended.
Even as I am checking my write-up on this issue, it is being reported as "sensitive" instead of "vulgar." This shows that our society is relegating truth to niceties, just to pander to the sensibilities of others.
What was your reaction when you read the first line of The Nickel Boys? For reference, the line is "Elwood received the best gift of his life on Christmas Day 1962, even if the ideas it put into his head were his undoing".
Which aspects of the first line inspire interest in Elwood, the novel’s protagonist?
What aspects of this line inspire mystery?
What is the main word or phrase within the first line that you would like to have explained by someone who could unpack it? Why?
Who might be able to explain it further and why?
What possibilities exist in relation to Whitehead's use of this word or phrase within the novel’s first line?
Which three of these possibilities do you judge to be the most likely and why?
Answer:
Find the answers and explanations below.
Explanation:
1. The aspects of the line that inspire interest in Elwood include
a. The best gift of his life. One wonders what the best gift could be and its importance to him.
b. ...even if the ideas it put into his head were his undoing. The reader might also wonder what the ideas were and why it would cause Elwood's undoing.
2. Mysterious things are unknown and hard to explain. The best gift of his life is mysterious because the reader has no idea of what that gift could be because not much is known about the protagonist. The ideas in his head which would cause his undoing are also mysterious.
3. The phrase I would want to be explained to me is; The best gift of his life. When I know what that gift is, it would help me understand the personality of Elwood and why he had ideas in his head on receiving the gift.
4. The author can explain it further because he knows the qualities of the characters involved in the story.
5. One possibility could be that the gift has a major significance in the story.
Another possibility could be that the gift promoted an ideology that the protagonist holds dear.
The use of the phrase might have also been to whet the reader's interest in the story.
6. I think that the last reason is most likely. Seeing that the reader is not yet acquainted with the character, the mystery surrounding the best gift would make him wonder what that gift was. He would also want to find out by reading more of the story.

As he turned to go on, he spat speculatively. There was a sharp, explosive crackle that started him. He spat again, and again, in the air, before it could fall to the
