The men’s voices were loud and projected off into the fog were they became lost and tangled in ‘No Man’s Land’ The grey sun seemed to be making it’s way up over the broken backs of the hills. The silhouettes of the men suddenly became clear. Faces dirty with mud‚ blood or anything that could be found in the trenches. Shoes without soles‚ shirts without sleeves

In my personal opinion about "Macbeth" and the thoughts of Shanley is that I would have to have to agree with Shanley’s thought proses on the situation given in the book.

Blake was known for expressing his own dominant ideologies‚ where he was highly criticized for contesting common societal beliefs. Perhaps this was why the essential meaning
