1. Is Patrick lonely? In my opinion‚ I feel as though the boy is lonely‚ living in such a remote and desolate place‚ with only his father to spend his time with. For example Ondaatje says‚ “He was born into a region which did not appear on a map until 1910‚ though his family had worked there for twenty hears and the land had been homesteaded since 1816. In the school atlas the place is pale green and nameless. The river slips out of an unnamed lake…” (10-11). Patrick’s characteristics makes him

In Raymond Chandler’s‚ The Big Sleep‚ he illustrates a clear tension between detectives and cops. Marlowe‚ an investigator is often challenged by factors not in his case such as resistance from local police. Marlowe says on many occasions that the law was corrupt. He explains how easily a “copper” could be bribed or persuaded and justice could be easily pushed to the side. In this case‚ he was right! The police of the city had been involved in many cases in which the facts had been hidden or slightly

In March‚ Raymond Moore made very rude comments about women in the WTA and how they ride on the coattails of men. He also said that women don’t make any decisions and they are lucky. I am pretty sure women tennis players choose where they play and if they don’t play. I think women are considered underdogs to men because men hit the tennis ball harder and have fast serves. Hitting the tennis ball harder doesn’t matter. It is how consistent you are. If my opponent can hit ten balls in a row then I

Raymond and Trudy was an amazing book that I would read again but I would like to address one thing. The cover. No the cover is not a representation of what is inside of the book but let’s be honest‚ a lot of people do judge a book by its cover. The cover‚ to be frank‚ is TERRIBLE. Whoever made the cover for your book is terrible at their job. The cover is blurry and plain. Even if you just kept the design and got rid of the blur it would be MUCH MUCH better. The cover is a turnoff. If someone told
