Hill may have used this metaphor in order to suggest that Kipps has traveled as far as he can; he has traveled to the extent that he can go no further as there is physically no more road to travel on. The “edge of the world” is thought to be a dangerous place where no one wishes to go (if there were such a place) which could reflect on the villagers views on Eel Marsh house. Eel Marsh house is a place that was poorly maintained and Hill uses imagery of “the soil gave way to rough grass and I began to see dykes and ditches” to add a sense of lack of safety to the houses surroundings. As Kipps makes his way around the grounds it begins to give way to revel water and unstable ground, making Eel Marsh house a dangerous and unsafe place to be and Kipps starts to be concerned about his safety. “Rough grass” is used to imply that no one has visited the house for a considerable amount of time and that there is no body to maintain and care for it either because Mrs Dralow had no friends or family or because everyone was too scared which suggest the woman in black has a strong influence on the community of Criffin Grifford.

It was put inot a large wooden tray or trough, and set down upon the ground…He that ate fastest got most, he that was strongest secured the best place; and few left the trough satisfied.” One can live without clothing or shelter, but not without food. Douglass, along with a majority of other slaves, were given the bare minimum to sustain life, if that much. In order to work in the fields slaves needed clothing to protect them from the weather. “In hottest summer and coldest winter, I was kept almost naked -- no shoes, no stockings, no jacket, no trousers, nothing on but a coarse tow linen shirt, reaching only to my knees.” Without the proper clothing many slaves perished in the fields due to the extreme temperature and weather conditions. To escape these conditions slaves also needed some sort of shelter and a place to sleep, but there was little to be found, “old and young, male and female, married and single, drop down side by side, on one common bed, -- the cold, damp floor.” Slaves couldn’t even escape there tough lives in sleep.
Later at the reef. Jon says "you could lose yourself in that, swallowed up and gone forever, a speck vanishing in the blue without a sound or ripple". Clearly this is something Jon is afraid of. he don't want to end up in the emptiness, becoming nothing that's why he keeps pushes himself to keep going on the diving school. At reef Jon nearly drowns again, but doesn't because Berto helped him.
The water quality is so poor, fish and sea mammals rarely come into the harbor. Having visited this beach and fished in these waters every week for twenty-five years, it is plain to see that the over-all health of this coastline has declined substantially. As the stagnation continues to cause the destruction of the entire near-shore habitat off the coast of Long Beach, the federal government has not moved forward to the project phase, citing unavailable funds and shortages. If the small section of breakwater were to be removed, the tidal swell would circulate the water and the near-shore habitat would recover (U.S.A.C.E. Apr.,2010.

When I finally reached sand again, I thanked god I was gonna rest for a while, even though I really wasn’t sure there was one. Well when I reached the sand and took a rest, some old crappy human with a blazing firing stick and a dog were hunting my ass. I flew away into the darkness of the bushes, where no one could see me. The old bastard kept me shaking for days! I was now in this swanky place with nothing to eat and no one to talk to, I had no reason to live.
In Homeless this is seen when she writes about the homeless women saying, “She was not adrift, alone, anonymous, although her bags and her raincoat with the grime shadowing its creases had made me believe she was”. This is also seen in I want a wife when the author writes about all the things wives have to do then at the ends states “My God, who wouldn't want a wife.” Narrative and Descriptive essays are both personal writings that may share a personal experience or perspective, and it can be an effective method for offering a viewpoint on a text or an event (Connell, C. & Sole, K.
He wanted to test his theory of the earth's magnetism at the north pole, and was on a ship traveling there. He seemed to be an intellectual, and knowledgeable person, but he felt alone and isolated because the only people he was with were the crewmen on the boat, and they did not share his passion for exploration. Even though he was physically with people, he didn't have any friends to share his dreams and goals with. His sister was the only person who he could share this with but she was hundreds of miles away from him. In the letters, we find out that Walton really doesn’t have any friends but he longs for one.
