I thought Don't You Have Any Donkeys In Your Country? was a cool story because of the way it's designed and thought out. The man slapping his hand to his forehead and repeating "I'm disgraced" over and over again was the starting point of the story and the ending point, not in between. A typical story is like a diamond shape, meaning it starts out with an introduction and builds up to it's climax to come back down again to a point. This story was like an hourglass, meaning the author just jumped straight into the story and reached the story and the answer to why the man has been "disgraced" before building again to the him being disgraced and what he's going to do about it. The difference in how the man with the donkey and the priceless cloth and how the Rug Expert sees things is also interesting, and it was cool to see those differences clash against each other in the way they both thought and what they said and did.
