    Annie Dillard’s essay "The Death Of A Moth" made no sense to me when I initially read it‚ in a "sleep-deprived" state. In the haze my mind was in‚ during the battle with my body and my desire to read this essay‚ all I could make out was that; she berated the small cat about her short-term memory before kicking her out of the bed they shared. She then proceeded to the bathroom to consort with a spider whose attire reminded her of a day when she murdered a moth. She spoke about the carnage‚ her sharply

    he Death of the Moth‚ by Virginia Woolf‚ is an essay inaccurately addressing the precarious and subtle relationship between life and death. This conclusion can be determined through the concept that her assertion that death is more powerful than life was merely a biased and tunnel-visioned opinion. Woolf‚ being emotionally and psychologically crippled by depression throughout her lifetime‚ morbidly expressed her perspective of the world in this piece‚ written one year prior to her suicide. It commences

    Does existence exist? Is “A” always “A”? What would happen if the elites who figuratively support the weight of the world shrug off their responsibilities and allow the world to fall? Who is John Galt? Such are the questions addressed in Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged‚ a 1957 philosophical dystopian-fiction novel that the author regards as her masterpiece in the fiction genre. Rand introduces John Galt‚ the novel’s main character‚ not as a character‚ but as a question. The question‚ “Who is John Galt
