Josh Martin Ms. Mcgrath First Block April 23, 2015 Clarisse McClellan, Abstracted Clarisse McClellan was my favorite character in Fahrenheit 451 because she brought such oddity and spark to the book. She is depicted in a rather different way, with four eyes, a balding head, and a neck straining for something we cannot see. Each detail of Clarisse’s portrait is important to who she is as a person. Her four eyes represent her constant inquisition. She sought to see all around her, trying to know other’s thoughts.
I get bored easily with books, but this novel kept me on my feet. The author played with my emotion such as, when Percy finally reunite with his mother, but loses her again to get way from the god of the under world. "The Lightning Thief is a great book for adults and kids. I've already recommended it to a couple of adult friends who experienced the same kind of can't-put-it-down pull that I did." said an anonymous person on blogcritics.org.
They encouraged her to devote herself to writing and on Christmas they presented her with a year’s salary. Lee quit her job and wrote full time, and with the help of her friends she published To Kill a Mockingbird. Later on that year, she greatly assisted Capote with the research and writing of the book, In Cold Blood. Capote dedicated the book to Lee and his lover but did not mention her contributions to writing the book. Although Lee was very hurt and angry, she continued to remain close friends with him because of everything they had been through.
Anthony Socci 3 White 11/28/08 Biography: Final Draft Da’dooch Socci “A day without laughter is a day wasted” This was John Michael Socci’s favorite philosophy that he lived by on an everyday basis. My interview with his sister Jenifer Socci, was a great privilege for myself. She is very wise, a remarkable memory and the smartest woman I know. This interview turned out to be more informative than I could’ve hoped for. Da’dooch was always fond of telling stories or explaining those who have passed.

After reading the article written by Sue Ellen Grealy I can understand her frustration and anger toward Patchett for writing this expose on her sister.. In her article she admits Ann would have been a better sister to Lucy than she was and she feels guilty about this fact. After reading the book Sue Ellen felt hurt even though she did not doubt the validity of Lucy's relationship with Ann or the facts. There is no doubt If Ann Patchett truly loved Lucy why would she tarnish her
Although Jem believes that Mrs. Dubose is a thoroughly bad woman, Atticus admires her for the courage with which she battles her morphine addiction. In one chapter, Jem breaks Mrs. Dubose’s camellia plan and his punishment was to read at her house for a month or two for an hour a day. Jem hated every minute of this, but taught him some good lessons. The responders get a sense of this woman “hating everything and everyone” when the character is introduced, again, as with Boo and Atticus, we see that there is much doubt and misjudgement to her. Atticus considers her one of the bravest people he knows and he wanted Jem to see that about her.
We see this when she writes in her novel, the book thief, "I have hated the words and I have loved them, and I hope I have made them right." This shows the reader that Liesel has realized the manipulative power of words and because of that hopes that through reading and writing compassionately she has ‘made them right’. We are shown the ability of words to comfort when Liesel reads to everyone while they wait for the air raids to finish. Death Narrates, “For at least 20 minutes she handed out the story. The youngest kids were soothed by her voice and everyone else saw visions of the whistler running from the crime scene.”- page 389 This shows that words can transport people into another world, giving them some temporary relief from their struggles and fears.
