Nicholas shows his butt and farts in Absalon’s face, but Absalon sticks him with a hot poker, and when Nicholas cries for water, the husband thinks that this is the sign that the flood is coming, and so he crashes to the floor. The neighbors laugh at John’s preparation for flood and that he has lost his mind. Plus, they know for sure that his wife has cheated on him. Literary Merit: Irony Chaucer uses the idea of irony in his language to create his characters and their unique natures. The character of Alison, despite her attempts to create an image of a lady, is completely promiscuous, and from this emerges dishonesty.

This unstableness is again seen later on in the scene after Eddie kisses Rodolpho in which he expresses two conflicting emotions as “tears are rolling down his face” but he is still laughing “mockingly”. This conveys to the audience that eddies inappropriate love for Catherine has led to the destruction of his sanity as he is laughing at Rodolpho in an intimidating manner but is crying because he knows he has lost Catherine forever. He further destroys his relationship with Catherine through the double kiss scene. Eddies belief that Catherine is a virginal “Madonna” or mere child in need of his fatherly protection is shattered after Eddie becomes aware of her and Rodolpho’s sexual relationship and it angers him greatly, as it brings on the realisation that Catherine has become a woman and is no longer his; “Eddie, I’m not a baby anymore”. His drunken state arouses Eddies suppressed feelings of desire and jealousy, resulting in him grabbing her and “kissing her on the mouth”.

This is an example of Stanley acting like an animal because men are not supposed to throw objects at women and he did fiercely. In addition, Blanch observes “He acts like an animal, has an animal’s habit! Eats like one, moves like one, talks like one!”(52). To Blanche, Stanley appears to have habits of a caveman. Finally, Stanley’s animalistic violence when Stanley irrationally, “crosses to the small white radio and snatches it off the table.

They become obsessed, maybe even sexually attracted but they have a deep fear of this man. When the narrator brings up Pocha she describes her in a way as a dirty human being. If she could, she would refer to her as something degrading than a human, “I hope he doesn’t do any of those repulsive things to her before killing her because she might like it, the dirty thing. I hope he kills her straightaway by plunging a knife in her belly” (Venezuela, p. 187). The girls welcome violence to her and prove their own self
Their sarcastic remarks to the powerless victim are evocative of the sarcasm Alex and his gang used on the victims that they beat and sometimes raped. Whilst Alex is suffering from the movie clips, Doctor Brodsky simply says ‘Excellent, excellent, excellent.’ Here, the Doctor is clearly portraying how he does not wish to show any sympathy towards helpless Alex, as he did do to his previous victims. The detail in which Alex goes into whilst in distress is extremely intense and vivid. Alex says ‘I was sweating a malenky bit with the pain in my guts and a horrible thirst and my gulliver going throb throb throb.’ For me, the repetition of the word ‘and’ explains to the reader just how many feelings of pain and discontent Alex is going through. Words such as ‘sweating’ ‘guts’ and ‘thirst’ are all words that we associate with labour and hard work and that is exactly what Alex seems to be going through.

After a while, Buddy will see that the argument is not even worth it and will humbly submit with his tail in-between his legs, while Kitty purrs to herself and laughs at her victims.
