After reading Thornton Wilder’s book‚ Our Town‚ I believe that it focuses mainly on the changes that we see in human life‚ for example‚ in the play of Our Town‚ we see the milkman always talking to the paperboy. Mostly about the stability of Grover’s Corners‚ each time they do‚ there appears to be almost no changes much in the town‚ as if time had stood still. In this‚ we see Howie and Crowell as the illustration of the consistency of small town life since they appear in all of the acts from act

culture‚ it is easy to understand why India is called "a land of festival and fairs." Every day of the year there is a festival celebrated in some part of the country. As in any old civilization‚ most of these festivals have religious ties. Because India is still a predominantly rural nation‚ many of its festivals also welcome the coming of natural phenomena like the seasons of the year‚ the harvest‚ the rains‚ or the full moon. Thus‚ festivals often commemorate the sacred bond felt by the Indian villagers

The play‚ “Our Town”‚ as a whole is remarkably interesting‚ the characters‚ the story manger always stopping the story at random times because he feels like that is all the reader needs to know. I really like the metaphor that is being used throughout the play. The morning meaning birth in Act I‚ the wedding that shows how life moves along in Act II‚ and the night meaning death at the end of Act III. There are so many different reasons on why I like the play. From the characters‚ to the setting
