In the novel Wolf Hall by Hillary Mantel, the author grants insight into the burning of a so-called “heretic” by the name of Joan Boughton through John Foxe, author of Foxe’s Book of Martyrs. The episode is described in improvised detail by Mantel from the view point of a young Thomas Cromwell. Mantel’s account includes the securing of Mrs. Boughton to the stake she would be burned at, the sound of her screams as the fire licked her flesh, the jeering of the crowd, the primal enjoyment had at this brutal scene by the spectators, all of these details being offset only by his own interpreted discomfort at witnessing this. This supposed distress provides a direct line into the character of Thomas Cromwell as depicted in the novel by Mantel. This passage is also used to exemplify the frame of mind of the times Cromwell lived in, along with his own opinions on the matter as she records him asking, “Does nobody pray for her?”

We are then introduced to John Dunbar, an open minded white man who often exhibits the contrast between the crude and violent and the peaceful and thoughtful men.
In “St. Lucy 's Home for Girls Raised by Wolves,” by Karen Russell, a group of girls are brought in to learn how to act like humans. These girls were raised to live just like wolves do.

One of the oldest girls, Jeanette, does very well from the beginning, but another, Mirabella, does very badly.
In “The Pit and the Pendulum”, the author manages to incorporate suspense into several parts of this story. One example is where it states, “I was sick—sick unto death with that long agony; and when they at length unbound me, and I was permitted to sit, I felt that my senses were leaving me. The sentence—the dread sentence of death—was the last of distinct accentuation which reached my ears. After that, the sound of the inquisitorial voices seemed merged in one dreamy indeterminate hum.” This shows how the author created suspense by not telling the reader about why the narrator was receiving a death sentence.

On Saturday, November 18, 2017, I saw the play The Library. The play is loosely based on the events of the Columbine school shooting of 1999 and other mass shootings that have happened on American soil. The Library opens with the main character in critical condition after having been shot by the typical lone-wolf gunman, as usually portrayed in American media.
