The Importance of “Strange Fruit” On August 7‚ 1930‚ Thomas Shipp and Abram Smith were broken out of jail only to face a fate far more gruesome and violent than that which they may have otherwise endured (Frederick 40).

My mom never

The Forbidden Fruit It seems like the greatest anecdotes revolve around an apple; Adam and Eve damned all of mankind for an apple and an apple inspired Newton’s whole life work. The scrumptious Frisbee-shaped apple pie that Gary Soto’s six-year old self snatches is almost worth spending the rest of eternity in hell. The author compels the reader that the rush and risk of stealing appears pleasuring enough when you enjoy it‚ but guilt fills the conscience when it vanishes. The use of diction‚ imagery
