    The two short stories of “The Death of a Moth” from the author Virginia Woolf and “Death of a Moth” by the author of Annie Dillard are distinct pieces of significances between two deaths of two moths.

To my understanding‚ Annie Dillard expresses herself using more of spiritual similes

    The book I read this month is called "Anthem" by Ayn Rand. Anthem is a fiction book and was quite interesting.

The book was about a society who were all equal and exactly the same until one brave person named Equality 7-2521 thought outside the box‚ something that has not been done in a while. It was very confusing to read at times but in the end everything
