The Movie or the Book? Nicholas Sparks has written multiple novels that have evolved into movies‚ such as The Notebook‚ The Last Song‚ Dear John‚ Message in a Bottle‚ and A Walk to Remember.

In Arthur Miller ’s moving and powerful play‚ "Death of a Salesman"‚ Miller uses many character to contrast the difference between success and failure within the system.
