    Character Analysis: The Wednesday Wars By Gary D. Schmidt

    In Gary D. Schmidt’s The Wednesday Wars, Schmidt shows us the good and the ugly of being a middle schooler. The book introduces us to Holling Hoodhood and his friends as they go through the thrills and wonders of being in the seventh grade. Although his love interest stands out the most to me. Throughout the novel, Meryl Lee faces a lot of inner and outer struggles, but she still maintains an intelligent, considerate and emotional personality.…

    Review of Frank McCourt's Angela's Ashes

    In this hard world where winning is more important than participating you would sometimes almost forget to be generous from time to time. But when I read Angela’s Ashes by Frank McCourt I got a completely different view on generosity and the importance of it. This memoir is about the miserable Irish Catholic childhood of the writer. And I think that after this essay you will see that acts of generosity can make the lives of the poor better and that those people afterwards can also help other poor people.…

    Run Lola Run Distinctively Visual Analysis

    Right from the beginning, Twyker places recurring motifs such as spirals and clocks to emphasize time's overarching authority and how we are bound to time. For example in the opening scene of the movie, the audience is exposed to a shot of a large dragon-shaped clock, the low angle that Twyker uses emphasizes the power and consumptive nature of time. We also learn that we are in a race against time and that it pushes us to do extraordinary feats. Twyker demonstrates this through his use of the split screen sequences where Lola and Manni are in the frame and a clock appears at the bottom, this emphasizes the presence of time everywhere and our race against time and how time is consumptive of us. It is through these distinctively visual techniques that Tom Twyker uses to convey time as consuming and influential to all of us, and that we are all in a race against…

    Analysis of literary devices used in the book of Zora Hurston, an African-AMerican book title: Dust Tracks on a Road: An Autobiography (1942).

    Living in the South during 1942, Zora Hurston gives the reader a first-person point of view of her valued yet constricted childhood as an African-American. By using diction from a young girl's perspective and her manipulation of point of view, Zora enriches our sense of her childhood. Most importantly, the time period of a belligerent WWII foreshadows Zora's conflict to try to break free from authority and her audacity to speak her mind.…

    Life and Art of Georgia O'Keeffe

    Most high art seems to be about death or sex. Throughout her struggle to elevate herself in a man’s world, painter Georgia O’Keeffe struggled a lifetime with these charges attached to her works. O’Keeffe is most known for her enlarged flower paintings and desert scenes rooted in public ideology of the female sexual organs, and bones as death. However, the true intent behind her works is nothing more than to present her world in a beautiful way. Georgia O’Keeffe is a female great American painter that is first and foremost an expressive artist; not a sex symbol, not an angry feminist.…

    Book Review, Abraham Lincoln

    In the book, The Death of Lincoln, written by Leroy Hayman, it truly shows mostly every important event prior to Abraham Lincoln’s death and after the assassination as well. Like Lincoln, Hayman has known was true pain feels like. Not only was Hayman hit in the head by an ink bottle, but he survived the terrible accident and continued to live his heroic life although he became paralyzed for the rest of his life. After this horrifying mishap, he became an author which led him to the creation of The Death of Lincoln and many other biographies. In this historical, non-fictional book, Hayman supports his thesis of “The president was wrong about the amount of time he had left.” by describing every crucial detail that led up to the president’s death and the capturing of the murderer and his accomplices. Hayman’s real purpose for creating this book was to retell a worn out story in a different, creative way. Hayman didn’t just tell readers’ information; he described an infamous, devastating event that has now become a huge part in American history in an interesting way. Once readers have read his book, it leaves them satisfied with the fact that they know more now before reading it.…

    The Unwinding Book Review

    The Unwinding is the perfect title for this book. It portrays and revolves around the sad and unsettling history of the last four decades in the United States. His topic is the fall of the structure of the national government. Packer makes remarks regarding the unraveling of unspoken agreements about the limits to Wall Street's greed, about what a congressman would or wouldn't do for the right price, about what a company owes its workers, and what the wealthy should contribute in tax. As Packers narrative moves through spectrum of inequality, from inner-city Ohio to Silicon Valley, to the exurban McMansions of Florida, and to Washington's corridors of power, he explains that each is fundamentally on his or her own.…
