A Cry In The Wild Analysis
I believe that A Cry in the Wild does a better job at explaining the story. First, because it clearly has a lot of imagery. For Instance, the tornado, the airplane crash, and the kissing. Also, it has a lot of foreshadowing. For Instance, the scene where Brian hides behind the bush. Also, the part where Brian busts his hand out of the window. As you can see,this is why I believe “A Cry in the Wild” does a better job at explaining the story.

    Jon Krakauer, born in 1954, was introduced to mountaineering by his father at the young age of eight. Following his graduation from Hampshire College in 1976, Krakauer worked as a carpenter and commercial salmon fisherman to support himself.

    Alvin Ailey Cry Analysis

    Conceived out of a concept devised by Alvin Ailey, Cry took its inspiration from the suffering of the African American Woman. "She represented those women before her who came from the hardships of slavery, through the pain of losing loved ones, through overcoming extraordinary depressions and tribulations. Coming out of a world of pain and trouble, she has found her way-and triumphed." In this three part solo, the dancer, clad in a white leotard and long ruffled skirt, brings the audience on a journey of bitter sorrow, brutal hardship and ecstatic joy. The dancer began the piece in the centre of the stage, towards the back, immediately pronouncing to the audience the fact that the woman will be the principal aspect of the work. The dancer…

    The Girl with the Blackened Eye/Barn Burning

    Joyce Carol Oates “The Girl With the Blackened Eye” was a narrative depicting a story about a teenage girl who had experienced tragedy at the age fifteen. The narrator, the character had endured what is believed to be eight days of physical and mental abuse from her abductor. She was violated and ripped of all her value. Oates displayed graphic and realistic detail so that the reader would have a clear understanding and visual of what had occurred. In William Faulkner’s tale “Barn Burning” was not as tragic. His story, in my opinion followed the pattern of choosing what is right from wrong, making strong decisions regardless of your situation. From this I obtained a family lesson, when Sarty became the lion and decided to remove himself from his father and his wrong doings due to his belief. The courageous boy felt and knew his father’s habit was a ludicrous act and no longer wanted part so he did what he felt was best. In some situations family members are forced to cause friction between each other or amongst themselves because of disagreements.…
