Do you know where I could find this online? I'm having trouble finding a speech for this year from the "library" of speeches that my coach has. I really like all of Joyce Carol Oates work though, but I wouldn't know how to cut it!

I did this in 2007 for my HSC monologue. I ended up getting (from what I remember) 87% for it. I started off a lot slower. Describing eating the orange I interpreted as a lot more depressing and harrowing, she wants it so bad but she can't let herself, she loves being in control but at the same time she's insanely depressed. My climax built up with her being on the edge, and I interpreted it as her dying...it was so sad, she wants to eat the orange, but it rolls out the circle,she's lost it.

I'm doing this piece. How in love are you with the word "globules"? ^-^
My second favorite is the very first part that you cut out.
"You're looking at me. I wish you wouldn't. Undressing me with your eyes like on the bus after school... Oh you may think - but say you're a woman my mother's age... or now, some dirty-minded guy... Like you think you got me trapped in a net with your eyes... a net of eyes... but you don't."
Because I get to torture the audience with my eyes<3.

I'm doing the same piece. :D It's so weird hearing this from someone else because there's like this big difference between how I'm doing it and how you are.
It's not bad, though there are too many climaxes and by the end it's not very exciting. Do you get what I mean? :]

@iNocturnes yea, the hardest part was definitely cutting for time. It's cause if all the highs are cut out, and the low parts are left in the text really stops making sense, as if it does in the first place, but for sure it needed more low, just the whole time issue
