    Camel Rider

    For Adam, living with his pilot father and family in an expatriate compound in Abudai in the Arabian Gulf, life could not be easier. But when war breaks out, Adam finds himself alone and attempting to find his way back to the abandoned compound to save his dog, Tara, who has been left in the mad rush to escape across the boarder. We also meet Walid, living a miserable life as a camel rider in a camp on the outskirts of Abudai. His father is dead and his mother works in Abudai, and he must win enough money racing camels to buy his freedom and return to his mother. By showing kindness to a camel due to foal he is responsible for her accidental death, and for this he is taken to a cave out in the desert, hobbled at hands and feet, and left to die by the cruel men who he was sold to. Dazed and delirious from the desert heat, Adam has finished his water and is close to passing out when he comes across Walid, hoping at first that he might be saved, but then realising that Walid has been tied up and abandoned in the desert. Together the two boys manage to capture a mountain goat, which they milk and then kill for the meat, to keep them alive. Although they do not understand each other’s language, and both assume the other is a fool, they somehow are able to work together to stay alive. Just when things seem to be going well, they are discovered by the two men from Walid’s camel camp – Old Goat and Breath of dog, as Walid calls them – who attack the boys and try to kill them.

    Shabanu Daughter Of The Wind Analysis

    At the end of the book, Shabanu thought of fleeing because she did not want to marry Rahim-Sahib. Shabanu wanted her independence and freedom. At first, she hoped the wind or rain will come and hide the camels' footprints so Dadi cannot find her, but there was no wind or rain. On the way of going to Aunt Sharma’s place, Mithoo broke his leg, so she thought, "I pray that Dadi will find us soon and that we can get Mithoo back to the toba on Xhush Dil's back" (2380). The thought of getting beaten to death when she was found vanished away because of the fear that the jackals would kill Mithoo stopped her from continuing on. She shows that she is protective of Mithoo by giving up on what she hoped for.…

    The Bride Chapter 23

    By structuring the movie into several chapters like this, it makes it easier for audiences to watch and focus on one thing at one time. For example, in the Chapter 3: The Origin of O-Ren Ishii tells a story on how O-Ren started becoming an assassin which was when her parents were killed in front of her eyes and made her who she was. The audience will also be able to understand the movie as flashbacks were also included so that they will know the reason why The Bride was seeking for revenge to her old team. However, there are some scenes in the movie were illogical or irrational to be happening in the real world. For example, during the first few minutes of the movie, it is shown that The Bride was being shot right on the head so there was no way possible that she should still be alive.…

    A Horse and Two Goats - by R. K. Narayan

    The story is a really good story confusing but humorous. At first, as you go reading, the story gives you a different idea of what is going to happen in it. Muni, the Indian village, wasn’t a wealthy man but he had his cattle to live on, but as it cattle went dying he was just left with 2 goats. He didn’t have much money, he was always asking for credit to the shop man and was always inventing lies to get the credit (the lies he came up with were funny). What confuses me more is when the foreigner comes into the story. They both are talking to themselves as if they were in a dialogue, which they aren’t cause they don’t understand themselves and they don’t respond to any of their stories or comments, so they were talking in a monologue and explaining their own lives. What is funny again is the ending of the story were Muni gets a hundred rupees for what he thinks that are his goats when it actually isn’t.…

    The Interesting Characters from Witi Ihimaera's Short Stories.

    Matiu, with his enthusiasm and lovingness, is an interesting character as he has helped me understand the theme of migrating to a different place with people you love (who do not want to move) in ‘Yellow Brick Road’. An example of Matiu’s enthusiasm includes the time when Matiu states, with an cheery tone “we’re almost there! Almost at Wellington, the Emerald City!” – relating his destination to the sought-out Emerald City of the Wizard of Oz, while his mother’s “eyes are still red with the crying.” This has helped me understand the idea that Matiu, while eager to go to a new place, does not quite know of and is not quite aware of the sadness and uncertain feelings of the other members of his family. However, he is not afraid to share his expensive lollies with them (“you want one, Mum? You want one, Dad? Roha?), possibly to cheer them up, demonstrating to me that he is a very loving child who cares about his family, even though he cannot grasp the situation entirely.…
