Think about the theme of the story "Sixteen."

English

nalin [4]3 years ago

The message that Maureen Daly conveys in the story "Sixteen" is that in affairs of the heart it is best to use your head to temper the feelings of the heart. The main character says, "My heart still prays but my mind laughs. Finally, mind wins!" "Sixteen" is a story of unrequited love. The young girl in the story feels the young man she yearns for is different; he really has feelings for her. But, he never calls, and he ends up being like so many other young men she has fallen for. “I know what the stars knew all the time—he’ll never, never call—never,” she realizes. The message is an age old one that many young people learn over and over as they grow to use reason when dealing with love as opposed to using only their feelings, which run the gamut of love and passion, to anger, and finally to reason and moving on.

Reika [66]

Notice how the word soliloquy is a bit like the word 'solo'. This is basically what it is: a solo in drama, where somebody is projecting their inner thoughts. This gives the audience direct access to the character's feelings.
