Brian noticed that “there were tall pines, the kind with no limbs until very close to the top, with a gentle breeze sighing in them, but not too much low brush” and two hundred yards up there seemed to be a belt of thick, lower brush starting—about ten or twelve feet high—and that formed a wall he could not see through. It seemed to go on around the lake, thick and lushly green.” Other than studying the place they were going to travel they also had concerns, worry, and fear during their conflict with nature. In the beginning of Clay’s journey when “he sat down and looked at the treacherous snow-covered slope” he thought to himself that “It was manifestly impossible for him to make it with a whole body, and he did not wish to arrive at the bottom shattered like the pine tree.” Brian’s worries during his journey were that “He didn't want to be anywhere in the woods when it came to be dark. And he didn't want to get lost.” The differences between the stories are how the characters react with nature which depends on the character’s personality and background and the historical period in which the conflict takes place. Clay lives in the 1800s and Brian lives in the twentieth century.
Fi’s backpack choices are so inappropriate because most of the things she packed you don’t need in the bush. 2. The importance of the hermit’s story at this point in the novel is to make hell sound scary. 3. Finding the bridge is a shock because the place is so isolated and no one ever comes up there.
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.
Where I live there is no cell phone service or a house with a family right next door. Its country living and living in the country is another key to what affects my body image. Me in my area we are used to jeans and hoodie or a winter coat. We dress warm and comfortable. Unlike city living is somewhat the same in some parts of the country but for most are nothing like where I live.
The side of the tracks where the Negros lived was dull and had no color to speak of, not even green grass. “The only touch of green was far away, beyond the tracks, over where the white folks lived” (560). The white side of the track seemed unattainable until his family moved away from the tracks

The odd words, the old words, the rare ones. When they're gone out of his head, these words, they'll be gone, everywhere, forever. As if they had never been. (Atwood, 68) Analysis/Explanation This quote not only identifies Snowman’s first stage as an isolated person but it outlines the importance of words to humanity. Because Snowman has no humans to interact with, he starts to forget words and their meanings.
The ranch hands returned to the bunkhouse, and it was decided to call it a night. "At least we don't need to listen to Curley askin' where his wife is!" Carlson said solemnly. There was no reply. Only the whispering of the trees outside.
“She would never feel at home with the hakujin”. As Hatsue and Ishmael part Gutterson uses the woods once again “a March stillness had seized everything - the trees, the rotting deadwood, the leafless vine maple, the stones littering the ground.” The use of the bleak setting reveals the decaying relationship. As Hatsue was influenced by her family and culture, she accepts that her love for Ishmael can no longer exist. She goes on to declare this to Ishmael, “everything appears to be different from what it was when I was with you on San Piedro” “I don’t love you
