the scene thus far is probably a little predictable, therefore, if you decide to keep it, i would make it short. try to build on any themes are ideas in the scene in the next one, such as the...
well both poems are about animals. ones which may be also not nice animals. how the poets use these animals in relation to the narrative voice should be the start of the analysis.
then ask questions...
if i understand you correctly you should say,
'i was struck by a grammatical error i had made, and yesterday decided to read more.'
i love 'champagne' by chekov. 'the overcoat' by gogol is excellent too. i also think that the stories of angela carter, although are they short stories or too long for that, are very poetic.
i thought the count of monte cristo was very dull in general. the characters had little depth either. and was he selling his books by the word?
i think this idea is very interesting, and i can see why hemingway thought it was his best story. i suppose all stories have a background which the reader must fill in with their imagination...

i think many of chekov's short stories are very bleak. they emit vast quantites of pathos to the point where the reader wants to cry.
champagne is my favourite so far, but i have only read a small...
i think the bible is very readable. the only exceptions are genealogies, but they only occur in the 'history' books and are not so frequent as to destroy the flow of the story.

i think the cheetah may well die out because, as the quote stated, it is too specialized. the opposite is true for humans and it is why we rule the earth in the way we do. humanity is the most...

As that crazy eyed interloper strolled wizenedly into the dim room,
'Evening Early, morning Late'...

i thought i would start a thread that although i'm sure has been done before, would still be of interest.
can there be an argument for religious books having god as their author?
when i ask...
i must admit that after having read hesse's the glass bead game, i do feel a desire to track down some wise yogi in india. however i ultimatley agree with the point that human ideas transcend...
i thought the main theme of the book is that oten characters say things which are true and also false.
i cannot think of a direct example, but the don himself is the best example of this. he often...
i have not finished the book yet but am into the second book, and have these things to say on the narrator.
i think the narrator in the book is extremely fascinating for one, for as your confusion...
i really liked Titus Groan in the third of the Gormenghast books. Don Quixote is a fine gent too, but for my likings he 'messes' himself too often; i would not like a roadtrip with him. i also found...
i just finished Faust by Goethe and i just keep wondering How did he sustain such brilliance?
since no one has written anything for andreyev i htought i would do a brief review of the 'judas iscariot and others' book.
judas iscariot - a wonderfully realised short story that has a similar...
hello,
i was wondering if anyone could give me any info on prose poetry, and also guide me in the directikon of any famous proponents.
thanks :)
the ending was a bit odd. was the man mocking the donkeys for their conversation, or the fact they were just donkeys?
other than that i quite liked it. read any orwell?
dont roar at people who fall in the mud?
dont eat babies, i suppose was what the narrator thought.
i think there may also have been some race-related stuff, but its hard to say, very hard to say...
but alexander was before daniel was written...
i am not aware of any prophecy in the bible coming true, partly becasue that was not how the ancient jews viewed the idea of 'prophecy'.
in regards...
in what way is it prejudiced? i thought it was very fair and balanced
