    Animals In Faulkner's As I Lay Dying

    Dewey Dell is the character that relates most with the family cow. The cow just like Dewey Dell has something inside of them. The cow lows at the foot of the bluff. She nuzzles at me, snuffing, blowing her breath in a sweet, hot blast, through my dress, against my nakedness, moaning. ‘You got to wait a little while. Then I’ll tend to you,’” (Faulkner, 61). The milk inside the cows body is related to the baby growing inside of Dewey Dell. The milk is symbolic of the thing inside her body. “The cow nuzzles at me moaning. ‘You’ll just have to wait. What you got in you aint nothing to what I got in me, even if you are a woman too,’” (Faulkner, 63). Even though Dewey Dell is pregnant now she finds that she has to be the maternal figure in the house. “’You go on to the house and get your supper.’ He draws back. I hold him. ‘You quit now. You leave me be,’” (Faulkner,…

    The Red Pony

    The Red Pony by John Steinbeck is an unusual novel that lacks a typical storyline and doesn’t flow from chapter to chapter like someone would expect. The protagonist of the story, Jody, learns about death, birth, illness, old age, and other important facts of life, which are most of the time not the most enjoyable lessons to learn. The two men who are role models in Jody’s life are his father, Carl Tiflin, and the stable hand, Billy Buck; however, Carl Tiflin is a very harsh father who struggles to show emotions such as love, praise, or even disappointment. Billy Buck is more capable of showing emotion, as well as being able to spend time with Jody and help him get the most out of the things he goes through and learn from them. Throughout the novel, Jody struggles to earn the praise and approval of each, but unlike Billy Buck, his father continuously fails to fulfill the need of acceptance.…

    War Horse

    Plot : The story is narrated by the horse, Joey – which I wasn’t expecting. He tells the reader of his experience at the farm where he is raised by Albert, his experience in France during the war and of the friendships he makes along the way. He sees some awful things in France, a fair amount of death and hurt, but what shines through this book is love – he has people care for him and he develops lovely friendships with many people in the book. He has Albert, the boy who raised him and trained him on the farm; Topthorne, a fellow horse in war with him and Emilie, a little French girl who looks after both him and Topthorne whilst they are camped at her grandfather’s farm. Friendship is the key factor in this book, and it can clearly be seen throughout the book.…

    Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard: Pinky Chawla

    1st paragraph: In the beginning of the novel, Pinky is not an important character in the story. The author does not focus on her because she is still too young to be have a main role in the story. That may give the reader a wrong impression: that Pinky will not have a main role in the story. However, as the story goes on, she is evolving into a larger and larger part of the story, interfering more with the protagonist, her brother Sampath, of the story and becoming a larger part of the story.…
