THE STRANGER "What is it‚ indeed‚ the absurd man? The one who‚ without denying it‚ does not make anything for the eternal. It is not that the nostalgia is strange to him‚ but rather he prefers his anger and his reasoning. The first one teaches him to live without appeal and to be satisfied with what he has; the second teaches his limits. Sure of his freedom to term‚ of his rebellion without future and of his perishable conscience‚ his adventure continues in the time of its life. The field is

IB SL English 2 Commentary on The Comfort of Strangers In one part of the novel‚ The Comfort of Strangers‚ the English writer Ian McEwan describes the admiration with which his male character‚ Robert‚ contemplates his sisters playing dress up.

The duty of the Fictional Writer is to capture the reality and portray the Absolute Truth in his work. He must be cautious not to detach himself from the vision of what-is‚ for that will decipher whether it is a good or bad piece of art.

Georg Simmels’‚ The Stranger‚ gives us an in depth view of who strangers are and how they affect the community they are apart of. It combines the seemingly contradictory qualities of nearness and farness and how they connect to the broader social communities. The behavior of a normal or "inside" group within a society is standard‚ thus causing every other behavior that is different to this norm to be negative. The stranger is valued for his or her objectivity‚ for being able to take a distanced

Pulp Fiction is like boot camp for the Marines. You come into it from your civilized life‚ they subject you to violent language until you’re numb‚ they abuse you verbally and physically until all of your normal feelings and values are reduced to dust. Leaving you aware that you have changed‚ and able to describe the change‚ you find yourself questioning the person you were previously. First thing you know you’re saluting. This story is a cleverly disorienting journey through a landscape of danger
