Bechdel’s take on writing is to the point but detailed. In this story Bechdel takes us back to when she was younger and her writing in her journal, with her mother critiquing her penmanship and her sentence structure. That allusion gave us the knowledge that we needed to understand as to why her relationship with her mother is somewhat strained. There is no avoiding the fact that the comic is greatly moralistic and in many ways almost a case study of her life and relationships. The repeated citations of Woolf and “To the Lighthouse” offer comparisons between the novel and the comic. The most obvious one relates to the revealing of her mother’s aspirations and depression, which created a sense of abandonment when she stops kissing her at the age of seven. This tension is reiterated throughout the comic both directly and indirectly.…
An ideal family is the one that sacrifices willingly for each other, even to suffer for one another. But a family in the most general terms does not necessarily have to meet that requirement. “Friends come and go, but family is forever” is a heartwarming adage of a loving supportive family yet another saying, “You can pick your friends, but you can't pick your family” may illustrate a more common reality. Alison Bechdel's comic-memoir Fun Home analyzes family coalescing in the belief that family whether good or bad is stuck with you for life simply because they are family and they are you and to deny them is to live a half life.…
In Bechdel’s, Fun Home, the Odyssey functions as a transitional object for Alison, who is undergoing a challenging journey of self-realization.

A mind is a masterpiece where a lot of ideas are flowing like a crowded traffic on a street. Some of us might have the ambition to put that idea into a scripture that will live long. But the question is, do we know how to address clearly our ideas in a way most people can understand? Maybe our idea might be a mind blowing masterpiece which might touch millions of lives. Here I will be analyzing the two pieces of writing. The first one is entitled “Homemade Education” written by the most famous, prominent and controversial civil right activist Malcom x (1925-1965). He stated all his personal experience of beginning & growth process of his writing and reading skills with their positive attribute in his life. The second of piece…

There is some confusion about what a lesson plan* is and is not. A worksheet is not a lesson plan. A handout is not a lesson plan. A classroom game or activity is not a lesson plan. In fact, there is no need for a lesson plan to ever be seen, touched, considered or dreamed of by students, and nor does it even need to exist on paper or disk, though it usually does.…
The short story, written by John Steinbeck, called “The Chrysanthemums” demonstrates an interesting theme of great magnitude. The main focus of this short story is based around the isolation and dissatisfaction of Elisa Allen’s life. From the beginning, the main character Elisa is alone. While her husband is having a business conversation with some men dressed in suits and smoking cigarettes, she is tending to her garden of chrysanthemums. Not only she is alone physically, she is also afflicted by both emotional and sexual distress. Eventually that sense of loneliness leads to the discontent of her life, until a scruffy, middle-aged man appears in a worn out caravan being pulled by a horse and a small donkey, known as a burro.…
