    The Shadow Lines by Amitav Ghosh Such moments are rare indeed these days when one takes a book in the hand and is completely captivated by it after reading the first few pages.

"The Shadow Lines‚" Ghosh’s second novel‚ was published in 1988‚ four years after the sectarian violence that shook New Delhi in the aftermath of the Prime minister‚ Indira Gandhi’s assassination. Written when the homes of the Sikhs were

    Robert Burke Theatre Appreciation Play “ Doubt” My first reaction to this play was restricted because of the lack of my open mindedness. This would happen to be my first and only play I have ever seen or even thought of seeing. I didn’t expect much but as it started it began to catch my attention and make me actually want to listen and take in the purpose and meaning of this particular act. Having not knowing what other plays are like‚ I thought this one was pretty cool because the stage was

     and the sooner we accept it the better chance we have of finding truth.  Doubt‚ as writer Patrick Shanley describes it‚ is a “wordless Being [that] moves just as the instant moves; it presses upward without explanation... until the resisting consciousness has no choice but to give way” (p.5). Are we giving enough consideration to this part of ourselves? There is a voice that will question what you will not. We will never escape this feeling of doubt. Patrick Shanley’s play Doubt: A Parable is about accepting this feeling

    Doubt Reflection The short play Doubt builds on many of the theme and central ideas of our class. One thing in particular that I noticed throughout the reading was the use of symbolism.

As defined by the dictionary symbolism is the practice of representing things by means of symbols or of attributing symbolic

    After reading many novels throughout my life I would place‚ The Shadow Lines‚ by Amitav Ghosh‚ in my top 10 list. The novel is based on the narrator who was English educated but Indian born. The narrator illustrates and shares his views of foreign countries which he has never been to with other characters in the novel. Even though the narrator is English educated his values‚ ethics‚ and culture is more Indian than an American. Many of us now notice that when a person migrates from one country

    1. I was most worried about what might happen to Omovo when he ran after the lady through the forest and got to the river. It seemed like he was going to run into a lot of trouble by following the lady all the way to her cave with the rest of the people she was with. 2. I think Omovo’s feelings towards the solders were more of fear and hate than anything else‚ it seemed from the beginning that he didn’t like them. After he saw them at the bar and they spit in his face‚ I think he got the feeling
