Death is everywhere in Starkfield. If I had to relate it to any of the characters, I would say Zeena, only because she is so sick throughout the book. Also, we know from the beginning of the book that some tragedy happens to the Frome family but we aren’t sure until the last few chapters of the book. So, the prologue sets a feeling of possible death for the whole book. Before the accident when Mattie and Ethan enter the house, Wharton describes the kitchen as “the deadly chill of a vault after the dry cold of the night.” I think this image is appropriate for the experiences of the years following Ethan and Mattie’s accident.
One example of complication was Graces kids, Anne and Nicholas were alergic to the sun, when ever they would go in front of it they would get blissters. So they had to close all the curtains in the house. The kids were always trapped inside while its a beautiful day out there, they could only go out at night. Another example is Anne keeps on seeing Victor the ghost, and keeps scaring Nicholas about that, because hes only little he said there's no such thing as ghost but Anne kept saying there was and he kept coming back and scaring them. The last example for this is at the end of the movie Anne, Nicholas and Grace find out that Mrs. Mills, the old man and the servent were ghosts, they were trying to scare then out of the house and keep the house for them selves.

The purpose of the paper is to outline the reasons for development of tenement housing models and its outcomes in late nineteenth century in London and New York City. Towards the end of eighteen hundreds metropolitan cities were faced with enormous plight of overpopulation, disease, poverty, crime, lack of accommodation and social unrest. Most of the city inhabitants were forced to pauperdom living conditions without ability to move out or change their circumstances. Terrifying conditions of city dwellers were depicted in Andrew Mearns’s pamphlet called The Bitter Cry of Outcast London: 'Every room in these rotten and reeking tenements houses a family, often two. In one cellar a sanitary inspector reports finding a father, mother, three children, and four pigs!
The paneled walls buckle, but “down under” is a place for Max to hide away from an unfriendly world. It is a run-down and depressing place, but it is at least his own. Except for Kevin’s house, the other social/domestic settings are even more depressing. When the boys visit the New Tenements (called the “New Testaments”), it is a sad and broken environment, one where people have no hope. Max’s father takes him to an old woman’s home, where they are intruders, and then to the filthy basement of a burned-out building.

Clarisse’s absurd death aggravates the situation: he rethinks the world in which they live, learns to think, secretly taking books to the house. A new spiritual mentor appears in Guy’s life- Faber, an old-fashioned man, who completes the initiated by Clarisse and opens main character’s eyes, forcing to notice what is going on around them.

"In listening to his mother's words, Gregor realized that the lack of any direct human communication over the course of the past two months, together with the monotonous life he led in the midst of the family, must have deranged his mind..." (628) 3. "Oppressed by self-reproach and worry, he began to crawl. He crawled over everything--walls, furniture, and ceiling--and finally, in his despair, he fell, the entire room spinning around him, onto the center of the large table." (630) 4. "They reappeared in his thoughts together with strangers or people he had already forgotten, but instead of helping him and his family, they all remained detached, and he was glad when they disappeared."
