This reminds me in paragraphs four and five the lies Krebs makes is a person who is fallen or injured they are not important those people are overlooking them. This reminds me of the relationship of Krebs and his sister when they have fights together. Also, this love is reminded between him and his sister when at the kitchen table eating breakfast and finally that conversation turned into a fight(16). Finally Krebs goes to his sisters indoor baseball game to watch as he was
Rather than remembering the circumstances ofaround the tragedy, she isolates the woman’s death. She does notn’t honor the woman's memory, but rather makes her death seem pointless. By holding onto that evocation, she reframes it, creating her own dark and nightmarish
The emotions during the interview with Kiley grew immensely when asked about her father. She became emotional and started to tear up. Kiley’s childhood was different compared to other five-year-old’s. She was not able to go to the park on a causal sunny day with her dad so he could push her on the swings, pretend to sleep in on a Saturday morning as if the sun hadn’t come up yet and the light hadn’t burst through the curtains shinning in their eyes, or even go out for pizza together after a soccer game. There were no simple things they could do together, for his presence was absent.
As the book goes on Lohrey uses descriptive language to portray that anxiety of Anna when the boy is not around. A tone of awareness forms from the imagined relationship as we realise that it was not last forever. This is presented to the reader as a metaphor as well as figurative language. “Since she returned from the city he eludes her; she sees him nowhere, and this making her unhinged…Something is dying, something is leeching
I can not seem to get Elizabeth’s attention for more than a second without her looking at me the way she does. She looks at me as though she might never forgive me and it really hurts me inside to know I have caused her so much pain. I enter my house with my gun after a long day in the woods planting crops. I lay my gun against the wall and make my way to the kitchen quietly listening to Elizabeth’s soft voice singing our beloved children to sleep. I see a pot in the fireplace and go give the soup a taste.
The narrator “can smile for you” and “can laugh and marvel, rapturous-eyed” but describes her heart as having died a “thousand little deaths” (Parker 1, 6, 8). The repetition of “can” causes the actions to seem emotionless and forced, while the list of actions seems like a recital of meaningless statements and not from genuine feeling. As a result, the pain of the narrator is not a surprise; rather, her diction implies it before she describes it directly. When she does explain her feeling of anguish and heartache, her usage of hyperbole and metaphor lends force to her description. Her emotionless, rehearsed list of ways she falsifies her feelings and reactions contrasts to the grieved description of her sorrow at his
A suppressed, detached tone is formed as a result of figurative language, syntax, and diction in such situations. The use of specific figurative language, especially similes and imagery, is essential in the development of this detached, painful tone when Offred is describing her present feelings. For instance, when Offred describes her relationship with the Marthas, she recalls how their interactions include “soft and minor” voices that are as “mournful as pigeons in the eaves troughs.” (11) Imagery is used to illustrate the “closed face and pressed lips,” of the Marthas, and Offred herself is considered “like a disease, or any form of bad luck.” (10) It is evident that Offred feels alone and ostracized, and is not able to have a true connection with those around her.
In enduring these complex emotions, this section was the most remarkable part. One of the first apparent emotions the boy experiences with the death of his father is loneliness to make this section memorable. The boy expresses this sentiment when he stays with his father described as, “When he came back he knelt beside his father and held his cold hand and said his name over and over again,” (McCarthy 281). The definition of loneliness is, “sadness because one has no friends or company.”
A Comparative Between Lady Macbeth and Daisy Buchanan In F.

The short story “Martha, Martha”, Zadie Smith, reveals, through juxtaposition and characterization, the universal theme that when people are without the people they love they experience emotional turmoil and cope with it by burying those deep feelings. Martha is a person who deals with emotional turmoil in the story. Her turmoil is the grief of losing her family. She grieves in private, “She was crying even before she had unfolded it, but flattening it out now against her knee made it almost impossible for her to breathe.
Excerpts of the Diary of Elizabeth May 7th 1670 Love. A singular feeling I have when I look at him. My Mr. Hooper, I am ecstatic that I get to marry the love of my life, MY Reverend. When I am with him, I feel as if I am on top of a cloud floating above reality. It is a feeling unlike any other.
“To the Ladies”, written by Lady Mary Chudleigh, is a poem that expresses feminism, and gives women a taste of how they would be treated in a marriage. Chudleigh displays this poem as a warning to women who are not married yet, as she regrets getting married. She uses such words that compares to slavery, and negative attitudes toward future wives to warn them. Back in this time period when the poem was published in 1703, women were known as property of men and you won’t have an opinion or a say so. The poem expresses a life of a naïve woman, who is bound to marriage by God, and she cannot break the nuptial contract.
When Richard’s heard the news of her husband’s death, he assumed Mrs. Mallard would be devastated. While everyone knew Mrs. Mallard was “afflicted with heart trouble” (57), him and her sister, Josephine, wanted to give her the news with “great care” (57). Josephine broke the news to Mrs. Mallard in “broken sentences”
There are several interpretations of John Keats’ poem, Ode to a Nightingale. Keats begins his poem with talking about a bird that seems real, but as the poem progresses the bird turns into a symbol. Keats was envisioning how life could be much simpler and he was thinking about the different ways life is troublesome. His reality was taken over by his dream of having a life like the nightingale- worryless and free. He wishes that he could join the bird because if he could escape to the nightingale’s world, he could escape from reality and live a much more uncomplicated and worry free life.
Further, situational irony is present through the reaction that Louise Mallard has after learning about her husband’s death. Upon first learning of her husband’s death she is very devastated and distraught. As soon as she is alone in the bathroom however, it is clear to the readers she is not as upset. In fact she is slightly relieved in that “she saw beyond that bitter moment a long procession of years to come that would belong to her absolutely. And she opened and spread her arms out to them in welcome” (235).
