The book would purge Dublin of its paralysis and enable the people of Ireland to take‚” one good look at themselves in my nicely polished looking glass” (Attridge 1990:41). In essence‚ Joyce saw scrupulous meanness

THE PLOT DIAGRAM The plot diagram: most people learn about it somewhere in elementary school‚ and indeed‚ it is the most elementary of tools a writer and reader can use in summarizing and outlining a story. It is so basic and flexible that pretty much every story written in existence can be outlined via the plot diagram.

Regardless of a hasty opinion recounted in a diary (often seen as snobbish‚ but more likely simply piqued‚ provoked‚ and annoyed) Ms. Woolf certainly seems to have employed some of the devices and methods that Joyce introduced in Ulysses.

A plot twist is a change in the expected direction or outcome of the plot of a film‚ television series‚ video game‚ novel‚ comic or other fictional work. It is a common practice in narration used to keep the interest of an audience‚ usually surprising them with a revelation.

The event I chose to write about is a TV show called Narcos. I chose Narcos for several reasons that relate to what we are talking about in class as well as being a decent representation of what politics are like in certain situations.
