It is something that we often overlook, but if you pay attention it can help you understand ones’ standing in society. Virginia Woolf compares two meals, one at a womens’ college and one at a mens’ college.

However, Adams remarks that he (the pizza dude) is on a journey and everyone should let him pass safely to deliver his pizzas to the many that have ordered. The second topic Sarah Adams gave is empathy, Sarah states that everyone has taken a job that they are not fond of or were respected at because they need money. This is a very good point; many young people work at gas stations and earn very little money and work hard. Sarah says that since the pizza dude has a bad job, he shouldn’t be blamed for it rather looked at with empathy. The third topic goes into honor, she remarks about how some big important businessmen are corrupt.
They spent their vacations in Puerto Plata, a city with some of the country’s most beautiful beaches (not as beautiful as Punta Cana, but still breath taking). They had all the good perks: five full time servants, ate rich foods like pastas and sweet Italian sausages, had “prosperous supermarkets, a cement factory, and fincas in the Septrionales” (p. 213) and were lucky enough to have better accommodations than the rest of the country. But the family’s forever lasting fukú began with Abelard and the “bad thing he said about Trujillo” (p. 211). Had Abelard not fucked around with Trujillo, and had he pleased the Failed Cattle Chief’s latest sexual capricho with his daughter Jacquelyn, then the Cabral-De Leon family wouldn’t have had such an unfortunate ending. After Abelard refused to comply with the orders, he was charged with “Slander and calumny
A smooth author created sentences and phrases that made strong connections with urban and domestic lifestyles. His sarcasm which he did use often brought laughs to most readers including myself. He wasn’t that common corny author who said stupid things to try to get a giggle or too. He used his intelligence and knowledge of his experiences and created sentences that meant a lot more than what they seemed. He was the streets voice as some said and he brightened us all with a little taste of urban living.

Even though the man was neatly dressed, she still has the prejudice that he is poor. The good girl The shop girl is very friendly and open-minded. Even though the girl knows what the man is up to she lets him come to the store each week, and actually asks him if he wants a spoon to sample the puddings. “Well, let him come if he wants it that bad” “Would you like to sample them, sir?

He demonstrates this by establishing Christopher McCandless's personality. Krakauer learned from teammate Eric Hathaway, “McCandless would wander the seedler quarters, chatting with prostitutes and homeless people, buying them meals and suggesting ways to improve their lives.”(113) This revealed that McCandless did have a caring personality. On the other hand McCandless's carefree personality was reflected in a letter he wrote to Ron, where he emphasized “If you want to get more out of life, you must lose your inclination for monotomous security and adopt a helter-skelter style of life.”(57) Krakauer included this letter in his book because it appeals to logic and offers Chris's own idea that clearly describe the joy that one may experience in his or her life and how to achieve it. Krakauer creates credibility by using strategies that demonstrate his comparisons with Christopher McCandless, while also showing that Chris was sane enough to make his own decisions regarding Alaska.

Throughout the story, the characters bicker back and forth about why it is better to be intelligent over being beautiful and vice versa.
