.... parents. In When We Married Gary, there is not much discussion about values. It mainly describes the real life experience of a family. However, it appears that the gender roles are shared because the illustrations show both the mother and the stepfather taking turns playing with the girls, and they are also setting the table together as a family. The adults' roles and responsibilities to the children seem to be very positive, understanding, and supportive. There are moments when the parents act silly with the girls, and they also discipline them at appropriate times. The stepfather seemed to have slipped in very casually. He let the girls know that he did not wa ....

.... references as to how people aren't as perfect as he was. "The reason he [Stradlater] fixed himself up to look good was because he was madly in love with himself." (pg. 27) Holden had an inferiority complex. He was afraid of not having any special talents or abilities and used other methods to make him out to be a rough tough boy. "Boy, I sat at that goddam bar till around one o'clock or so, getting drunk as a bastard. I could hardly see straight." (pg. 150) Holden tried all he could to fit in. He drank, cursed and criticized life in general to make it seem he was very knowing of these habits. I myself have found me doing this at times, also. I, at times, feel the need ....

.... two also. The two authors grew in slightly different environments, which largely affected the substance of their fiction novels. A common parallel that can be drawn is that each knows first hand how prejudices can get in the way of a person's life and block a person's thoughts. The focus here is how Wright targets racism and how Thurman targeted Intra-racism. Thurman was born at the turn of the century and did not live past the age of thirty-two but he still left behind him three books, one of which is The Blacker the Berry. Unlike Wright, Thurman chose several different settings in following the protagonist from home, to school, and then the city. As some African-American ....

.... side by side with Sal Paradice on his adventurous treks across the country and see the world through his eyes. For every borrowed Cadillac and every hitchhike on back of a pickup truck, the reader is along for the ride. In every smokey little jazz club and every cramped run down apartment, the reader shares the experience. The way that Kerouac is able to create a detailed portrait of every situation shows that he is a master in the use of imagery. The main contributor to this imagery, however, is Kerouac's use of extensive, though necessary, detailed description. The magnitude of the imagery in this story could never have been attained without the use of the vivid ....

.... also believe Kat to have a sixth sense. He was able to find anything that was needed in places where no one else could. Once he went out to "explore," then came back over an hour later with bread and meat for dinner. Albert Kropp Albert was one of the students that enlisted at the same time as Paul. He was also a close friend of Paul's. So close that after both had been wounded and were on a train home, when Albert became sick and was scheduled to be taken off at the next stop, Paul went off with him. After this stop they were sent to a hospital to be treated for their wounds. Paul after a few weeks ended up healing fine, the opposite was true for Albert. An infection ....

.... a love and desire in Montag to enjoy the simple things in life. Clarisse attains this knowledge from her uncle who reads the forbidden books. Clarisse suddenly dies from fatal car accident, and Montag is devastated that she dies so soon after meeting her. Meanwhile at the fire station, Montag is discovered hiding his books by the fire chief, Captain Beatty. "A natural error. Curiosity alone … We let the fireman keep the book twenty-four hours. If he hasn’t burned it by then we come and burn it for him." (pg. 68) Beatty lets Montag keep the book until that night when Montag will return to work. Meanwhile, Montag meets with Professor Faber, a retired English ....

.... they ran into her house to retrieve her belongings. Another example of physical courage was that of Atticus standing up against a mob. The last example of courage was Arthur Radley fighting Bob Ewell and saving the children. In the novel we saw several example of moral courage. In my opinion this is the best type of courage because it shows the character of person. The first display of this courage was Mr. Cunnigham's constant payment of his debt to Atticus; he had the courage to take something into this neighborhood. The next display of moral courage was when Jem despite his misgivings constantly went to Ms. Dubose's house and read to her. The next display of moral c ....

.... part, are stories which relate timeless tales. The events described took place long ago, though nobody knows how long. In addition, the endings of the tales would probably be described as having a good outcome. The people were created and they found friends in the physical and spiritual world. The first part of the book describes the beginning of the Kiowa culture and their development. Towards the end of the first part, the tone of the stories changes. Instead of describing different stories each time, they begin to tell a story which continues through six numbered sections. The story relates the life of a baby who grows into the sun's wife who then has a ·child who be ....
