Thesis was a bit wordy. Elie has some of the most marvelous figurative language throughout the novel, starting off with some metaphors. Elie and the rest of the block are running to a peculiar concentration camp, with no rest Elie starts having speculation of what will happened if he stops running. “ A great ideal wave of men came rolling onward and would have crushed me like an ant” (87). No analysis How does this relate to the author’s purpose?
From Jew parades to gas chambers, Hitler was known for his cruel and unusual tactics during his reign. At this time when the community is faced with many hardships, Markus Zusak uses passage through windows in The Book Thief as a way of gaining freedom from his control. On April 20, 1940, Hitler’s birthday along with Germany’s victory over its enemies and the restraints that held them back since the end of World War I was celebrated by all people of Molching. The Fuhrer called for a grand celebration with parades and music, but more importantly, fire. Citizens were required to surrender all literature from the “old Germany” to be burned in the name of Hitler’s glory.
You can tell he is having a fit because he will be frothing at the mouth and flailing his arms above his head and acting like the cookie monster from Sesame Street. Producer: Why was he put into an Institution in the first place?

Producer: Is there any idea where he is at the moment? We think that he is in the North Lintiest area.
Junger mentions that with their free time, soldiers would hunt pheasants, try and catch rats with metal traps, and occasionally find dud shells out in no mans land and attempt to explode them using their riffles. These positives were heavily outweighed but the most serious aspect of trench life. This aspect was uncertainty. Soldiers were never certain on how safe they were and how much longer their lives would be able to continue. At one point Junger mentions, “…behind every traverse lurked catastrophe, ready to pluck its next chance victim (51).” Later Ernst Junger gives a description of such a situation.
This “bad boys” will do whatever it takes to keep their rebellious reputation.

Writing to describe Wednesday 11th September Natasha Wilson Year 11 That moment arriving at the Army Training Camp, with sudden shocks bursting through the vehicle, the dirty brown creaking door fiercely shock open there was a terrified deceiving tear. The destroyed, defeated and dying enemies laying, like dull crooked, old-fashioned stone statue just like a crone or corps. Frozen on the pulled poppies marking through down, down, down on the broken battlefield. Shivering as the feeling of Rueben-Red roses ripping its way through my scorching souls viciously eager to harm. Burning through my throat… As the fear of traumatised soldiers fleeing their way.
Arriving When Father Vincent says “Fear is a journey, a terrible journey, but sorrow is at least an arriving,” he means that uncertainty can sometimes be worse than knowing bad news because at least there is solidity with knowledge. This quote not only applies to Cry, the Beloved Country but the world in general, for it's the universal theme of the book. In Cry, the Beloved Country, the main character, Umfundisi Stephen Kumalo, is on a journey for the whole of the book. He's on a quest to not only find his son and sister but find out why the world works the way it does. It is a horrible journey, and one that seems to have no end.
Elie worked hard to save himself and asks God many times to help him and take him out of his misery. "Why should I bless his name? The eternal, lord of the universe, the all-powerful and terrible was silent..."(pg 31). Eliezer is confused because he does not know why the Germans would kill his race, furthermore does not understand why God could let such a thing happen. "I did not deny God's existence, but I doubted his absolute justice..."(pg 42).
The misfit is engulfed with futility and no faith to keep him running along with what he used to believe in, or what the grand mother is forcing him to believe in. After being thrown into jail he feels like as if “[he] was buried alive” (O’Connor 412). Editor, Lynskey gives great perspective on The Misfit’s attitude towards life. The Misfit has a quarrel with Jesus. Jesus upset the order of universe.
After reading “A Good Man Is Hard to Find” by Flannery O’Connor, three words stick out as the theme behind this story. Those three words are ignorance, manipulation, and most importantly grace. The concept of the Christian form of grace is extremely apparent in this story and is perhaps the main theme of this story. This isn’t your typical Sunday school story on grace however. O’Connor takes it to a whole new chilling level when the subjects of this grace happen to be sick, demented, cold-blooded serial killer.
