Readers start to note change within the narrator as he begins to describe the cathedral on the television screen to his visitor. He tries for a while but ends up tripping over his words and having no such luck. When solely relying on vision‚ he quickly uses up his means of explanation. Robert instructs him to retrieve a pen and paper with plans for them to draw the cathedral instead. At first he reacts with puzzlement in his tone‚ but soon comes full circle to acknowledge this new idea. This demonstrates

I had Cathedral in my bag‚ intending to read Carver’s A Small‚ Good Thing. At lunchtime I decided to borrow from the library‚ Beginners – the recently-published book of Carver’s unedited What We Talk About When We Talk About Love stories – so I could compare the three versions. Though the catalogue said there was one on the shelf at Customs House‚ it couldn’t be found. The librarian ordered another copy from Surry Hills to be sent for me to collect from Town Hall. On the way back to work I stopped

Their senses of humor follow a similar pattern‚ in that the narrator relies on his bitterness and Robert relies on his wit. The narrator makes jokes at Robert’s expense‚ saying that “‘Maybe [he] could take [Robert] bowling’” (Carver 212).

As the above discussion suggest‚ Reed rewrites the traditional detective archetypes in Mumbo Jumbo. The detective in Mumbo Jumbo is not a perfect and eccentric weird but a blemished and caring houngan. Discarded the pattern of one detective with one assistant‚ the detective is accompanied by several assistants in Mumbo Jumbo. And the main assistant in Mumbo Jumbo is not a simple-minded listener‚ but a far-sighted tutor. The villains in the novel are also ironically depicted. Contrasting with the

Part a Problem The HR problem that I am going to highlight in this organisation is the lack of promotion and opportunities to develop. Many of the employees who have worked for the company for many years have seen no promotional opportunities arise. The employees are all very committed and dedicated towards their jobs but are now beginning to find going to work lacklustre and boring as the work is no longer challenging. This is causing a huge lack of motivation from the general workforce. All employees
