The Jilting of Granny Weatherall

When the story is just told and relived through Granny Weatherall's point of view, we get a peek at all of her memories, but the present tends to get mixed with the past in a very confusing way to some point where you are pretty sure she is dying and all of her memories are slipping from her. I wouldn't say it's a bad narrative, because it's supposed to play a purpose. These type of narratives are "streams of consciousness", so we are supposed to take them as we get them, no matter what order (it's the order their brain is working in), and try to make the best sense we can out of them, because we can't get inside another person's head realistically either. We can only hear their recollections and try to make sense of them ourselves. Especially a dying individual who understandably, may not have all their marbles upstairs. It can get confusing but do you ask a dying person to clarify? No, probably not. You might as well just keep listening.
