... and sees himself, becomes shaken, reforms. From Pancho's employer, Franklin Gomez, we get a cold hard look into society. We see a mother, knowing her son is to be hated and feared, and perhaps possibly killed, cannot face killing her son with her bare hands. She leaves the killing to exposure to the elements, enying herself a look into Tularecito. Franklin adopts Pancho's demon, and Tularecito transforms into a disadvantaged who has been gifted with talent. Tularecito becomes a man at the age of six, "The boy grew rapidly, but after the fifth year his brain did not grow any more," To Franklin, Tularecito is grace, and graceless. He is talented in all things ...

... over, it looked like that gun was part of him …and he did it so quick, like…I hafta to aim for ten minutes fore I can hit something,…’"(Lee 97). That is when they realize that their father is a humble man who doesn’t like to show off his talent. Another misperception that Scout has is about Mrs. Dubose. She always thought of her as a mean old lady who had nothing better to do than to yell at children. But, they soon found out that she was in withdrawal for a very serious addiction which was why she was so angry all the time. "Mrs. Dubose was a morphine addict. She took it as a pain-killer for years"(Lee 111). After she dies Scout starts to grasp the fact tha ...

... of his death, from a long battle with throat cancer, these were the two most famous novels he had written. The Call of the Wild was Jack London's most famous novel,"This is the novel that separated London from all writers of that era."(Brooks 35) Written in 1904 it was a story about a dog who was brought into Klondike to pull sleds during the gold rush. The name Call of the Wild comes from the natural instinct that animals have to be free in nature. The main characters in this story are Buck the four- year-old half Saint Bernard and half-Scottish shepherd, John Thorton and the Scottish half-breed. Buck was stolen from his home in California during the gold-r ...

... a fantasy, and his resulting downfall. However, Fitzgerald seems to weave much more than that into the intricate web of emotional interactions he creates for the reader. One interesting element is the concepts of greatness each has. For Daisy, it lies in material wealth, and in the comfort and security associated with it. Daisy seems to be easily impressed by material success, as when she is touring Gatsby's mansion and seems deeply moved by his collection of fine, tailored shirts. It would seem that Tom's relative wealth, also, had at one time impressed her enough to win her in marriage. In contrast to that, Gatsby seems to not care a bit about money itself, bu ...

... even raped her when she was little. She never really understood why whites hated her so much because of her skin color. When it came time for Governor Fabus to integrate public schools, Melba signed up immediately. She wondered what it was like in a white school. Soon enough, she found out what it was like. She attended one of the best schools in the country, where the upper-class children of Little Rock went. Melba was always abused and picked on at school. Her grandmother told her to be a warrior and not to cry, because warriors don’t cry. In the South, people were not treated equally in the 1950s. Jim Crow laws stated that people were “separate but equal”, bu ...

... the summer of 1922, Jordan helps the reader to learn more about Nick because he lets his true self out to her. Although Nick still liked Jordan regardless, he describes her as “incurably dishonest” (Fitzgerald 63), because of Nick’s remembrance that she cheated at her first big golf tournament. This creates Jordan to be a foil of Nick, because he tells himself, “I am one of the very few honest people that I have ever known” (Fitzgerald 64). Jordan connects Nick to Gatsby by bringing him to one of Gatsby’s parties with her, where Gatsby introduces himself to Nick. Jordan leads a careless life, one incident proving this is the scene where Jordan is driving Nick. ...

... Dr. Peabody arrives at the Bundrens' house just in time to watch Addie die. Just after Addie's death a violent storm breaks, and Darl's and Jewel's lumber-laden wagon loses a wheel in a ditch. Meanwhile, young Vardaman drills holes into the coffin lid (so his mother can breathe), and inadvertently drills into her face. By the time the coffin and the wagon's wheel are repaired, three days have passed, but finally, the family can set off on their journey to bury Addie. Years earlier, shortly after Darl was born, Addie had asked her husband to bury her in Jefferson, where her "people" were from, when she died. So to keep the promise he made to Addie, Anse sets ...

... this story is that of the contrast between light and dark. The cafe is a "Clean, Well-Lighted Place". It is a refuge from the darkness of night. Darkness symbolizes fear and loneliness. The light symbolizes comfort and the company of others. There is bleakness in the dark, while the light calms the nerves. Unfortunately for the old man, this light is an artificial one, and its serenity is fleeting and deficient. Maybe the old man hides in the shadows of the leaves because he recognizes the shortcoming of his sanctuary. Perhaps he is drawn to the shadows so that the darkness of his own age will not be so visible as it would be in the full force of the electric ligh ...

... his) kills Budd. Neither of the murderers show guilt in the form of remorse. For a narrative that tries to put the reader in a moral and ethical position, isn't it ironic that the characters themselves don't exhibit what would seem most ethical? Immediately following the fatal blow to Claggart, There is no outlet of Billy's emotion; whatever emotion he may be experiencing is not accounted for. This is not the behavior one would expect from someone who had just accidentally killed someone else. On trial Billy has this to say for his actions: "I did not mean to kill him. But he foully lied to my face and in the presence of my captain, and I had to say something, and I ...

... and care to judge fairly". The main focus of part one is Boo Radley. Boo was considered to be an outcast by many of the people in Maycomb. He never came outside, except for two occasions in the book. The first time Boo comes out is when a fire breaks out at Miss Maudies, and Scout is standing outside in the cold. Boo wraps a blanket around her, without her knowing that he did. The other time didn't happen until part two, when Jem and Scout are attacked by Bob Ewell. People were prejudiced against Boo because he is different. The children had not seen him so they made up stories about him (Johnson,1). They were afraid of him. They didn't realize it was Boo leavi ...
