And it has created the word ‘solitude’ to express the glory of being alone.” Does your study of texts support this perspective? Loneliness and solitude are closely juxtaposed to show the over all effect of going it alone. The great Gatsby supports this perspective as it contrasts solitude and loneliness through the protagonist Nick Carraway and Jay Gatsby. Beneath the clouds shows the aspects of facing isolation when

    Poetry Response to Wallflowers by Donna Vorreyer This poem makes me think of my favorite book called The Perks Of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. It is the story of a boy named Charlie and his not-so-average life. The story is written as letters to someone he has never met‚ but heard was a good shoulder to lean on. This book is my favorite because I can really relate to Charlie. Speaking of Charlie‚ that is my puppy’s name. He is a chihuahua and dachshund mix. He is my best friend and is
