People” by David Foster Wallace is a story about hypocrisy of a young man named Lane Dean. Wallace depicts Lane as faithful and thinking that he’s above others. Lane’s character is flipped upside down as he realizes his truth about faith and others. Firstly‚ the characters in “Good People” are dynamic. At least‚ Lane is dynamic because the reader only knows his thoughts. As the story progresses the readers see that Lane stops only thinking about himself and starts to think about Sheri. By saying “

Joyce creates a drab lifeless atmosphere in the boy’s world through musty imageries of “dark muddy lanes‚” “dark dripping gardens‚” “dark odorous stables‚” and “ashpits”.

Wallace’s “Good People”‚ Lane continued to pray though the suspended silence‚ for his heart he could no longer hear. Rather‚ Lane peered into Sheri’s heart; he knew what was to occur here today‚ as Sheri turned towards him‚ all he could see were his dreams going up in smoke.

they care about only themselves and not the other drivers around them. It’s irritating when some idiot decides to drive slowly on the left lane of the highway. The left lane is designed for passing‚ not holding back traffic. That’s why the right lane is made for slower drivers. Slow drivers can make highways and road unsafe. Driving under the limit on the left lane can cause drivers to start tailgating and eventually road rage due to the slow driver. People have places to get to and when drivers are
