Haunani Kay’s article on social justice supports this claim by illustrating how the indigenous people were mistreated. He uses the phrase “the color of violence” to explain

Segment A of Oracle night was a very interesting segment‚ it was like an introductory segment where we got introduced to the main characters‚ and to Austers style of writing.

In addition to that‚ Auster goes back and forth in time not keeping a constant writing tense. Another aspect of Auster writing that I found interesting was his

Once a person is born he/she goes through a rapid stage of learning‚ but what comes before that is unknown. Jean-Paul Sartre offers an opinion similar to John Locke’s “tabula rasa” in thinking that “existence precedes essence.” Many argue on the making of a man‚ but Sartre humanistically gives people the ability to decide who they want to be. On the other hand‚ Sartre’s

horrific deaths‚ but which three of these men deserve your sympathy the most? I sympathized the most with Paul‚ Albert‚ and Detering. Paul Baumer was the character that I felt deserved the most sympathy because he had it tough in the war from finding out that his mother had cancer‚ being alone‚ and losing all of his friends. For example‚ Paul had said‚ “I am the last of the seven fellows of our class” (293). This shows how all of Paul and his friends have either departed from each other or passed

exceptionally renown? From the outset‚ Lawrence introduces the story’s conflict—financial need and emotional emptiness. Dedicating much of the first few paragraphs of the piece to intricately describing the psychological‚ structural and social problems that this issue creates‚ Lawrence creates an environment that makes it simple to introduce the idea of relying on luck as a final prayer of desperation. Despite the simplistic language used to narrate the piece‚ Lawrence introduces a number of genuine
