While reading The Chocolate War, I noticed that the way Cormier depicts the females’ roles in this book was a little sexist. Discrimination against genders is an arguable topic. When Archie thinks by himself waiting for Obie, he realizes that he’s been so busy with his work that he “doesn’t seem to have any time to himself anymore, not even time for girls” and he thinks back to the days when “you could let your eyes devour some luscious sights and usually talk one of [the girls] into the car, for a ride home” and usually stop once in awhile for some detours. In my opinion, Archie treats girls just as eye-candy. He doesn’t care about their personality or their well-being but only their physical appearance. While Jerry was lying down trying to fall asleep, he laid their thinking about the girl and the way “her sweater had bulged beautifully, her schoolbooks pressed against her rounded breasts” and he only wished for the books to be his hands. All Jerry was thinking about was his longing to touch the girl’s breasts. Instead of thinking about what truly makes her beautiful, he laid there in bed thinking of her breasts and nothing else. Girls in this book are just thought of as something pretty to look at.…

The theme of It's Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini is life is filled with problems, but you need to work through them, and learn about yourself. An example of this being the theme is while Craig is in the hospital he discovers his love for art after realizing how much he enjoys art Craig decides to go to art school instead of his original high school. By adding this the author wanted the reader to recognize Craig making concrete plans for his future. This showed that Craig learned about himself and what he enjoys doing giving him a reason to live. This reminds me of when I was younger and played club soccer. Another example of this being the theme is the end of the book when Craig continuously tells himself to live. This is significant…

In her story, Boys and Girls, Alice Munro depicts the hardships and successes of the rite of passage into adulthood through her portrayal of a young narrator and her brother. Through the narrator, the subject of the profound unfairness of sex-role stereotyping, and the effect this has on the rites of passage into adulthood is presented. The protagonist in Munro's story, unidentified by a name, goes through an extreme and radical initiation into adulthood, similar to that of her younger brother. Munro proposes that gender stereotyping, relationships, and a loss of innocence play an extreme, and often-controversial role in the growing and passing into adulthood for many young children. Initiation, or the rite of passage into adulthood, is, according to the theme of Munro's story, both a mandatory and necessary experience.…
Milk is a very popular drink for the youth in this book. “ The milk symbolizes immaturity and helplessness. The milk was laced with hallucinogens and that's what makes the youth act out and none of the adults had violent behavior. Alex refers to “groodies” (breasts) in the book always as a sexual temptation. When groodies are brought up Alex uses this as a foreshadowing of sex or even rape in the book. “It may not be nice to be good, little 6655321. It may be horrible to be good.” ( 2.3.13) This quote takes place as Alex is in prison and a prison chaplain telling him he may not enjoy being “good.” Alex has a sort of emotion expression and attachment to night and darkness. He feels comfort in the privacy and security nightfall brings…

Audre Lorde’s The Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic as Power offers powerful new ways to think about eroticisms and how they are enacted in everyday life to empower women. She defines the erotic as a source of power, a source of knowledge, and a lens through which we can analyze aspects of our lives to evaluate the satisfaction and joy we receive and deserve. We see themes of the erotic in Sapphire’s Push through the interactions the main character, Precious, has with her social world. In Push, Sapphire presents spaces that are supposed to be designated as safe and protective as sites of physical and mental harm and exploitation for Precious. She revises historical and literary precedents around Black women erotics by showing the family, social…

The novel that I have chosen to portray the theme of family love is “Step by Wicked Step” by AnneFine. This novel is regarding five British school children from Stagfire who shared their joys, sorrows and anxieties of their family life. It all begin when they arrived ahead of their classmates for a week-long field trip at "haunted' Old Harwick Hall. In the stormy wild night, Claudia, Pixie, Robbo, Ralph and Colin find a long-abandoned secret room containing a mysterious journal with the aid of flashes of lightning. They uncover a heart rending story of Richard Clayton Harwick, who runs away from the sinister influence of a loveless stepfather. This discovery triggers off each of them to reveal and share their own engrossing, heart-rending stories filled with hurting and healing moments way through a minefield of embittered or uncommunicative or just plain immature parents, insecure or reluctant step parents and resentful step siblings. The implied themes in this novel are revealed through the characters thoughts, speech, actions, reactions and what others say about them. Thus, based on this novel, I have chosen to write on Richard Clayton Harwick’s family members who have portrayed the theme of family love amazingly and dramatically through sense of love, devotion and loyalty.…
Boys and girls, is a fictional short story, beautifully written by Alice Munro, about gender identity and stereotypes, as a young child moves into adulthood. The story takes place in the 1940s on a fox farm in Jubilee, Ontario. During this time women were viewed as second class citizens but the narrator, who is also the protagonist, desires to be more than “just a girl”. Through the conflicts of the protagonist, Munro depicts the challenges of growing up with gender stereotypes. Her use of first person narration and characterization help to show the hardships of passage into adulthood, and she is still able to examine gender roles for girls and boys, through the use of her secondary characters.…
