people live their lives is based on mistakes. This is the claim made by Lewis Thomas. Thomas is correct- people base their lives on mistakes. Humans‚ young or old‚ hate being wrong.

Mistakes are not as important as the step that follows them. Lewis Thomas was completely correct when stating that mistakes are the base

Matthew Lewis’ ending scene of his literature novel The Monk can be considered as diving into the madness that is gothic literature. The author uses tone‚ diction and symbolism during the scene to leave readers a memorable and gruesome ending to his novel. The author exercises the literary element of tone infused with diction to convey a serious last thought to the ending of the novel for readers. “Blind‚ maimed‚ helpless‚ and despairing‚ venting his rage in blasphemy and curses execrating his

The title of the book is Babbitt. Sinclair Lewis wrote the book Babbitt. Sinclair Lewis was Noble Prize winner and an amazing writer. I think the author’s purpose for writing this book is dimple.

One fact I obtained from the book is that not all rich people enjoy their lives. As portrayed in Babbitt‚ the characters
