I walked over to him and kicked him hard in the gut. He quivered once and was still” (156). These two situations are similar in the way that they both have intruders that they scare away or

The important thing in the reader response theory is the interpretive of the readers itself, rather than the author or even the text.

The way of their interpretation may reveal their identity, because the reader gives the critic depends on their knowledge and experience (Philip Goldstein, 2005). Everyone has their own perspective toward anything, especially for the literary works. Each of people perspective is unique. That is why reader response was created. The theory is about the transaction between the writer and the reader. The writer composed a meaningful text, whereas the reader composed an interpreted meaning of the text.
