... uncooperative with him. However, Mr. Lees is able to communicate with Hagar about religion. Lees was a member of a religious group known as the Redeemer's Advocates, a name that will be representative of his role in Hagar's redemption with herself. Like Hagar, Lees has no actual faith in religion, and says that "I kind of mislaid it and when I went to look for it, it wasn't there". Lees' religion was the cause of his greatest loss, when his son died in a house fire while Murray and Lou Lees were at the Tabernacle. This loss created a permanent distrust in religion for Murray Lees, something Hagar also has. The loss of a child reminds Hagar of the loss of her son, Jo ...

... he is strong, it's his job to abolish the weak. 4) This idea is expressed when Zaroff states, "...Life is for the strong, and, if need be, taken by the strong. The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure... I hunt the scum of the earth - sailors from tramp ships - lascars, blacks, Chinese, whites, mongrels- ..." 5) This shows that Zaroff not only acts arrogantly, but also is sadistic. 6) His demented mind forces him to believe that it is moral to hunt all living creatures, when in fact, he's actually committing murder. 7) The worst part is that Zaroff considers his hobby of hunting other humans amusing. 8) Another trait of Zaroff is that he ...

... commit. His side of the story was not believed because he was black, which really shows the amount of injustice during the time the novel was set in. Through the whole trial, he did not retaliate at the white people, he did not get mad because he was improperly accused, he just showed the level of respect which everyone deserves. He handled the injustice with a manner reserved only for gentlemen, which is a good description of what he really was. The third person to suffer injustice in the novel was Boo Radley. Many accusations were claimed about him even though they were untrue. Just because he didn't leave his house, people began to think something was wrong. Boo ...

Inspiringly, Henry finally does face his fear of the harsh realties of battle. In the end, ...

... in the story suggests, that Elisa . . . is talented and energetic-as well as frustrated. She cuts her chrysanthemum stalks with excessive energy; ‘her work with the scissors [is] over-eager, over-powerful (Hughes, 23) ’”. When the repairman shows interest in Elisa’s flowers she becomes attracted at that moment. It almost seems like Elisa lives through her flowers, that they are a reflection of her. That being the case, it was interesting to see that even though her husband Henry didn’t pay notice to her garden, Elisa invited the repairman into the garden after just a few minutes. It looks like these flowers are th ...

When the prince realizes palace life is a lot better than begging in the streets, he has to find a way to get back to the palace and reclaim his rightful throne. Along the way he suffers many predicaments including starvation, abuse, and jail. Mark Twain’s style in writing was very unique.

I beseech your good lordship that order be taken to change this law...” is an example of the style within the novel. Not only the does the dialogue and ...
