Hinting to his readers that there has been friction between he and Brad since a very early age. In( paragraphs14-16), Lott describes a black and white photo taking by his wife in 1980 outlining the differences in their heights, and their choice of clothing, but he made sure to point out that both he and his brother were also wearing genuine smiles even though they were goofy ones. Indicating that despite their differences they are still brothers and as in the picture they sometimes lean on each other for support. Upon analysis of the first two portions of this essay, the reader has only two small snap shots of Lott's life, 20 years apart. Not until (paragraph 18) and then
This also could be used to describe to describe his view on life seeing that he thought people were “boring” if they were just like everyone else and cared about the little details. The author also uses italics to emphasize words like in this sentence: “I mean if they’re running and they don’t look where they’re going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them”. Just as the Salinger used italics for the same purpose, to show how Holden only cared about the main idea, which in this case was his unrealistic role as the “Catcher in the Rye”. Holden seemed to try to get the point of what he was trying to tell his sister while she kept on correcting him. Another strategy used by the author to effectively
Their enticing sexuality, he believes, tempts men to behave in ways they would otherwise not. A visit to the “flophouse” (a cheap hotel, or brothel) is enough of women for George, and he has no desire for a female companion or wife. Curley’s wife, the only woman to appear in Of Mice and Men, seems initially to support George’s view of marriage. Dissatisfied with her marriage to a brutish man and bored with life on the ranch, she is constantly looking for excitement or trouble. In one of her more revealing moments, she threatens to have the black stable-hand lynched if he complains about her to the boss.
Frome marries Zenobia Pierce prematurely, only to obviate “the mortal silence of…long imprisonment.” (Wharton, page 61) He wanted “the sound of a …voice” to fill the void on his farm. (Wharton, page 61) Likewise, Holden seeks conviviality with Sally Hayes though he dislikes her phoniness. He ends the “depress[ing]” date by calling Sally a “royal pain in the ass.”(Salinger, page 133) Both characters were merely looking for companionship in their otherwise lonely lives but both encounters ended badly, for Frome on a large scale and for Holden on a smaller scale. Undoubtedly, these rash acts to receive camaraderie illustrate the foolhardiness of the protagonists. They both abhor solitude but are unsure how to find viable friendship.
Daisy as well as Jordan are described as innocent and pure throughout the first couple chapters of the novel – “ They were both in white, and their dresses were rippling and fluttering…”. However it is just a façade, Daisy has flaws which she hides through wearing white, in reality she is cold and “her voice is full of money”. Gatsby wants Daisy to admit that she has never loved Tom, however Daisy loves them both and that is when Gatsby’s dream fails. He realises that Daisy is not the person who
Lastly, the fathers expectations of two characters does not align with the mothers, yet in one piece of literature the mother expected exactly what the father wished. The feeling of not conforming to societal and parental expectations and not being appreciated condemns youth into believing they are worthless and negatively affects their outlook on life. “Brother Dear” and “A Cap for Steve” both deal with the raw issue of parents not accepting children’s ambitions in life. The two main characters have different goals yet both goals resembled the life that they wish to live at that time. Greg, from the short story “Brother Dear,” does not desire to attend university and become a man of business yet that is all his father wants for him.
“The Attitudes toward Marriage”, The two stories have a third person point of view that is limited. In the two stories the husbands felt there will be no powerful will bending and they who blind persistence which men and women believe. They are the right to impose a private will upon a creature. “The Story of an Hour”, Mrs. Mallard was an unhappy wife. In “The Storm”, the wife Calixta was controlling and Clarssie was a happy person who was glad to be free with her husband presents.
This shows how he does not know how to deal with conflict, confusion, and change. The museum presented an artificial way of how he would like to have lived his life; without change. The reality is-people change. I noticed that as people changed or there was a conflict, Holden distanced himself. For example: Holden strongly admired his English teacher, Mr. Antolini.
One man suggests, “She is so devoid of introspection and reflection that, at one point, Montag discovers that she cannot even remember how they met (Brown). It is suggested that she is a temptress. Another review states, “Instead of merely seducing the male protagonist out of his earthly paradise, she charms him into seeing it in a new manner” (Grossman). She tries to convince Montag that he is sick from reading books. There is no room for books in her life, and she ends up turning Montag in to the authorities.
They are scarcely remembered. Women play a small role in these six short stories: “The Things They Carried,” “Love,” “Spin,” “Sweetheart Of the Song Tra Bong,” “Stockings,” and “The Lives Of The Dead”. Beloved female characters such as Martha, Mary Anne Bell, Linda, Kathleen, and Henry Dobbins’s girlfriend all affect the men of the Alpha Company. The men romanticize the women and use their occurrence in writing, photographs, and even their imagination, as a manner of comfort and memento that humanity other than killing and war does exist outside the mayhem of Vietnam. They represent the part of life that the soldier’s were hoping and dreaming about, and they are getaway from war.
