The Grandparents House Karla Dyer Eng 121: English Composition I Bradley Troll The smell of cookies lingered the house‚ the sound of birds watching squirrels run up and down trees was entertaining to watch growing up.

It centres on how does the poverty affect the Boyle family members living in a two-room tenancy in a tenement house at the time of when Dublin had some of the worst slums in Europe. The key moment of the play which draws my attention to the chosen theme is the scene where Juno Boyle told her husband‚ Jack “Captain”

The article “Literature As Survival: Allende’s The House of The Spirits” by Peter Earle argues that literature such as The House of the Spirits and One Hundred Years of Solitude brought historical awareness of what occurred in Latin America.

While seemingly rambling‚ Isabel Allende’s The House of the Spirits is best explained with the words of Erin Morgenstern: “there are never really endings‚ happy or otherwise. Things keep going on‚ they overlap and blur… and there is no telling where any of them may lead.” The entire novel is a circle‚ ending with the same words with which it began.

Even thought this was a very popular song in the 90s‚ it still lives on with example such as the 93 million views on YouTube. “Smells like Teen Spirit” appeared on Rolling Stone’s 500 greatest songs of all
