Consequently, the readers start to notice more and more repetitive things, such as the “angels” in paragraphs one, two, and nine. Gary depicts these angels following him as “shadows” and never actually saying what they look like. They are the watchers, watching his every move and making him think about his decisions and the people he is affecting. They are there to make sure that if he is one toe out of line, everyone will know. There is also the recurrence of the Christianity theme throughout that relates to the angels as well.
She hopes that it will be angels that will save them. “I tell that we are expecting a sweet angel and when angels tread, the hosts must be as beautiful as floating hibiscus” (p.86). Through all the things they go

Not every movie, book, and show is trying to make you a bad person. Take the show ‘rick and morty’. It's a sci fi dark comedy, where an alcoholic genius and his dim grandson go on crazy adventures. But the show explores the struggle we have to find ‘meaning’ in our lives. The shows scale is incomprehensible.

The Van Daans rooming with the Franks is a fitting idea because children are naturally egocentric, thinking of themselves as the center of their world, at birth. It takes development and training to teach children to think of others as well as themselves.

Joyce Oates uses vivid speech to establish clues and evidence of the stranger's past. To take as an example, when the stranger describes the kitchen, he promptly includes how it was personally “a—controlled sort of place" (327). This quote hints how the house was always "controlled," therefore, a possibility of abuse or severe obsession. As he further expresses his remembrance of each feature in the home, he adds how the dining room was “dark most of the time...dark by day, dark by night.” Giving a feeling of mystery, Oates urges her audience to sense his strange, dreadful
