    and also a non-fiction writer in America. The book ‚ published in 2005 ‚ is more a autobiographical book than a novel because the whole story is based on the author’s personal experience with his beloved dog Marley.

    As I reviewed the book Black Boy by Richard Wright‚ I have noticed that the author’s main interest is in Language and World Affairs as he paid much attention to human conditions of the twentieth century. Keen focus/ literary theme was on the life and history of the author which stimulated insights and thoughts of the cultural occurrences of the period. The story tabulates the author’s life growing up as a poor African-American‚ highlighting the struggles and obstacles that were trite for that group

    In the autobiography‚ Black Boy‚ written by Richard Wright takes the readers back into the deep south of Jackson‚ Mississippi‚ where whites attempted to tame blacks into submission by hard discipline.

    To some people the words "Book-report" mean rent the movie and write a report on that. Yes‚ it is easier to watch a three-hour movie rather than read a 536-page book. With most books turned movies‚ though‚ the book is far too detailed to fit everything. This is how it is with the book The Green Mile and the movie The Green Mile. There are similarities but‚ there are also a lot of differences between the two.         The main parts of the book and movie are alike: Coffey being caught with the two

I enjoyed reading about two families with many problems and hardships because it was very suspenseful and you can vividly imagine the craziness in your head of people dying‚ yelling‚ hiding secrets and hope it was a creepy community that does not exist. This book will appreciate your good health and your family. It will swallow
