The GREAT Gastby by F. Scott Fitzgerald pages 172. I choose to read this book because I’ve heard a lot of great things about the author F. Scott Fitzgerald.

In the film Rear Window‚ Alfred Hitchcock likes to play around with different perspectives to convey different branches of his narrative without deviating too much from the main plot.

In the poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T.S. Elliot‚ Prufrock is a man that is pessimistic‚ has low self-esteem‚ and has much internal conflict. He believes that he isn’t good enough for the women of his desire; this theme also becomes a motif.
