In the The Scorch Trials by James Dashner I have been noticing an interesting author's craft. I have noticed that Dashner has included challenges the kids must overcome in the form of grievers in the first book and cranks in the second book. They are very similar and I think they were put in both of the story’s to stop Thomas and the gladers from getting out of the maze and stop them from getting the cure for the flare. In the Maze runner They also have differences a griever is a creature that lives in the maze that comes out after it gets dark. There purpose is to kill the gladers.
Friendship. War. Carless peace. This work of literature teaches disciple in many different ways. Training for olympics.

He is described as "a motionless young man, pallidly neat, pitiably respectful, and incurably forlorn” (Melville 374). At first, hiring a calm and quiet man like Bartleby seemed like a good idea to the lawyer. He was placed at a desk in the lawyer’s office, which had a window view of a brick wall and screens that prevented him from human sight. Bartleby stares at the dead brick wall outside his office window for hours on end.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman was a young woman suffering from depression and anxiety when she visited a specialist and was told that her nervousness could be easily solved with a “rest cure”. This misguided advice inspired her to write “The Yellow Wallpaper” which follows the story of a young woman whose husband disregards her anxiety and depression as “nervousness” and leaves her for several weeks alone in a room to “rest”. His ignorance demonstrates the gender dominance in their relationship, as well as the class structure which is presented because of John’s education and career. The narrator eventually has an extreme
