My first indication that Wayward Pines existed became apparent when the new television show of the same name launched on Hulu and stars Matt Dillon as Ethan‚ the main character. There is a very modern Twilight Zone twist to this story of a man waking up in a small town where no one can escape and no one is allowed to talk of their past lives.

“Testament of Youth” by Vera Brittain 1933 How does the writer portray her feelings about war? The testament of youth was written 15 years after the First World War‚ therefore it is not perhaps as reliable because she’s had time to forget the memories and also be given different people’s views which would mean that she didn’t put something in or changed it because it didn’t fit with her new views. However it may be even more reliable because since the war ended more truths have come out‚ when

Raising the driving age will punish all young drivers for the mistakes of a few of their peers.” These words are the thoughts and feelings of Alex Koroknay-Palicz from the National Youth Rights Association (http://teacher.scholastic.com).
