Morose 1 Clara Morose Mrs. Crown English 3 Hon – 7 18 March 2011 The Sixties Is it possible to summarize the sixties into one sentence? Impossible!

At this time in my life‚ this book was very well received. With so much going on in our world today‚ I do not believe we do enough of what the title recommends. We do not “Stop‚ Look‚ and Listen”. James 4:14 – “Whereas ye know what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appeareth for a little time‚ and then vanisheth away.” Scripture reminds us that life is short and for a middle-aged man I adamantly agree. The book really provoked me to thinking about many things

Applying narrative techniques of the old film noir genre‚ this film is both unconventional and structurally unusual. The protagonists‚ Meryl‚ Nick‚ and Andy‚ are all complex personalities‚ making it difficult for the audience to relate. Director‚ Sarah Watt‚ employs many visual forms to assist the audience

If‚ ‘I Hear America Singing’ depicts a brighter and more up-beat society; ‘I Sit and Look Out’ describes a dark‚ sad‚ corrupted‚ sorrowful world. Walt Whitman uses sad words describing emotion and just all sorts of corruption imaginable. In this sense the entire poem is a poignant criticism of life‚ with the speaker acting as a detached observer‚ finally leaving it upon the reader to react and judge against the malady of life that the poet shows within the framework of just ten lines.
