Abstract

A response to Ina Ferris' "The Face in the Window: Sunshine Sketches Reconsidered;" Ferris argues that the ending of Sunshine Sketches shows that Leacock lacked faith in his own imaginative powers. However, at the end of Sunshine Sketches, the author has indeed succeeded in his imaginative endeavour and manages to highlight the power of fiction to control the emotions of readers.
