    Eudora Larkin

    • 407 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Mrs. Eudora Larkin orders and thinks she owns the town and she is ‘classified’ as one of the better people of the town. Well‚ that was my first opinion of Mrs. Larkin. She can be bossy and mean with a hint of disgust‚ but when Arthur Devil‚ the mine owner‚ offends the late Eugene Larkin‚ people sure can change.

    The Death of a Toad

    • 1074 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Humans Vs Mother Nature "The Death of the Toad" spoke volumes to me the first time I read it. The general feeling and motivation behind this poem seemed well put together and almost simple for one to comprehend. Richard Wilbur writes this poem about a supposed toad being caught in a mower‚ "A toad the power mower caught"(1). However‚ I believe that the writer uses the toad as a sort of synecdoche for wild life in general and uses the "power mower" to represent humans and also

    • 1611 Words
    • 7 Pages

    Larkin is a misogynist who hates marriage and children. Discuss how far you agree. I agree with this statement to some extend but not fully. I think Larkin can come across in these ways however to put a definite label on him would be an assumption. Also I think that by saying he hates children and marriage is too much of a strong statement and perhaps he personally never chose to do these particular things in life or couldn’t understand them. Larkin comes across as a misogynist from the way
