Stephen Crane introduces us to Jake Potter , in the Bride comes to yellow sky. The setting of this is the town of Yellow Sky somewhere in the southwest United States. I feel the setting is an Indian reservation. Jake Potter displays internal conflict. He is happy he has taken a bride, but is also concerned about how she will be received once they return to Yellow Sky. Jake is unaware of the comments and sneers around him due to be completely head over heels in love. The setting of this story is first the train and then the small town of Yellow Sky. This is written in third person omniscient. Jake also experiences an external conflict, that with Scratchy Wilson. He does not want to hurt Scratchy, but at the same time is devoted to his wife.
This story to be is one of deception. Jake Potter has taken a wife from another cultural and is afraid of what it will do to his reputation. He also shows he is not afraid to die for love. The ending was somewhat a let down, due to there is no . Maybe there actually was, someone with kindness.

Much better, Angela! Now you are understanding how to use literary terms. I would also like to see more of your reaction to or opinion of the story--or relate it to you or someone you know. 3/4
