Chapter 7 – McEwan storytelling We start the chapter with a description of Parry through Jed “No longer the Indian brave‚ despite the pony-tail”. McEwan really sets the scene with this as it gives us a clear picture of how Parry actually is. Shortly afterwards Jed’s scientific side comes out as he starts to re-assure himself that Parry is really harmless and that is was the accident that clouded his judgement. We feel a sense of relief as we now are told Parry is not threat as he is a “harmless

The War to Save a Nation Should we interfere in countries that are in civil war or in need of help‚ or should we as a nation be more concerned about our own issues on the other hand?

In “The Rose that grew From CONcrete” By Tupac‚ It talks about a rose growing out of concrete‚ and how it defies society’s laws and expectations.

I think that relates back to “potential”‚ and people who don’t have proper support and seem like they will never be successful. I also have strong belief that the poem relates to those who work extremely hard to make their dreams a reality‚ and no one cares

The vignettes by turn expose the

I will compared and contrast two poems that deal with a similar topic of being caged. What I seen comparison in these poems are that we are giving a visual representation of people who are free and successful while there are people who are caged ready to be successful but are kept down either by their peers or the society they live in. In Tupac’s poem the rose represents the desire of people that are caged and how it takes a strong will to reach the so called “freedom”‚ freedom is represent as
