Literacy: A Lineage (Annotation)

In the begging, the author opens with discussing the main point of this essay, her love for literature, and the person who inspired her; her father 

After the poem, Luken discusses her childhood memories of literature and how they helped her love for reading and writing grow in chronological order 

Luken uses learning French as a skill that she has learned to connect to her English literature, but goes back to the familiarity she has with English on p. 135 paragraph 2

Luken expresses multiple experiences using imagery to clearly explain in detail how they connect to her now

The author describes the essay in first person to reflect on her experiences in a way that the reader can get a clear understanding of her personal thoughts and emotions.

She uses her father's love for literature as a way to represent her "inherited" love for literature on p. 135 paragraph 3.

Her closing paragraph reflects the benefits of inheriting a love for literature over inheriting objects, and how she applies this skill throughout her life.
