Detective Dewey was not alone in his belief that the actions people do are meaningful; that the events that occur in this world have an order‚ a design. This belief is prevalent‚ especially in religious groups‚ and we learn in the novel that Holcomb‚ Kansas is part of the “Bible Belt” (34). It was definitely a religious town‚ and the Clutters were churchgoing folk. Dewey‚ for this reason‚ cannot escape believing there is a reason for everything‚ and that the Clutters death had a purpose. Is that

Garrett and Holcomb (2005) note that one of the struggles they face results from their peers in schools. Because they often have a hard time hiding their language’s backgrounds‚ they can face mocking and discrimination in schools. This can result in ELLs choosing to not speak to prevent further embarrassment. Garrett and Holcomb give an example by talking about Amy‚ a Chinese immigrant student who would be laughed at by

Lending a sense of mobility to evil in passage 1‚ Perry& Dick’s “black Chevrolet” is the personification of a dark interior juxtaposed against the banality of the murderers’ outward appearance. This image undercuts the sense of routine and stagnation in Mr Helm’s assertion of “nothing out of the ordinary” happening the last time he’d seen the Clutter family alive. Evil’s sense of mobility is not only employed by Capote with regard to the murderers through the Chevrolet but is reinforced ominously

I swear I don’t spend my Saturday’s cutting up dead people. Believe it or not‚ that’s usually one of the first things I must explain to people when I tell them I participate in forensics. I’ve had many of great experiences with forensics‚ as well as a few that were less than ideal –to say the least- throughout my years competing. The combination of the two has been a large part of who I am though‚ and I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything. The forensics I enjoy is a lot different than what

Nelle Harper Lee grew up during the Great Depression‚ and in a time where there was a lot of racism.

In Cold Blood “You’re a young man. Forty-eight. And from the looks of you‚ from what the medical report tells us‚ we’re likely to have you around a couple of weeks more” (Capote 47). This quote from Mr. Johnson from the first section of the novel The Last To See Them Alive puzzles me because he said that Mr. Clutter would be around for a couple of weeks more rather then a couple of years more. Capote makes it more bewildering by having Mr. Clutter respond with “Tell the truth‚ I feel pretty good
