    "Island Man" and "The Fringe Of The Sea" I recently read two poems entitled "Island Man" and "The Fringe Of The Sea". They are both similar in theme‚ but they also have many differences. Both poems are based on the emotions of people who live near the sea and their feelings towards it. This theme relates to both of the authors‚ and connects them; the author of "The Fringe Of The Sea"‚ A.L. Hendricks‚ was born in Jamaica and later in life moved to Britain. Grace Nichols‚ author of "Island Man"‚ was

    "TEEN DRINKERS DON’T GROW OLD" They Die Young It is said that teen drinkers or smokers don’t grow old‚ which others think as a good thing. But the fact is they don’t grow old because they die young. No offense but it’s the truth. But this doesn’t indicate that drinking alcohol & smoking is forbidden to happen.

    Sea Animals Sea animals are very helpful to people. They are also unique in their own ways. The world would be completely different without sea animals. My experience of sea animals was when I went to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. In the aquarium‚ I saw many fish that can do cool tricks and live in interesting habitats.

    the short story‚ “The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World‚ “magical realism is seen in the way the villagers treat the drowned man.

    ‘Although Josefina is central to the plot‚ she is never presented as a convincing character’. Do you agree? Rolf de Heer’s ‘The Old Man Who Read Love Stories’ portrays the profound emotion through romantic literature‚ and the appreciation of life’s simple pleasures. Each and every character within the film differs from one another. Through the beliefs and values of the Shuar‚ to the way things get done with the European. Josefina‚ the films only female character‚ is a beautiful resident of the

In recent articles I discussed Bradbury ’s use of mirror imagery and nature imagery.

    "The Escape" by Somerset Maugham I have always believed that if a woman made up her mind to marry a man nothing could save him. I have only once known a man who in such circumstances managed to save himself. His name was Roger Charing. He was no longer young when he fell in love with Ruth Barlow and he had had enough experience to make him careful; but Ruth Barlow had a gift that makes most men defenceless. This was the gift of pathos. Mrs. Barlow was twice a widow. She had splendid dark eyes and
