I have read numerous different books in my Contemporary Literature class; I have chosen to compare and contrast The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls and The Perks of Being A Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. Ironically, they both have meanings that are fairly relatable for anyone; we are all impressionable as children however our innocence is often stripped away by life’s challenges. The two contemporary literature books I chose, both show and help to explain how our life experiences influence who we grow up to be. Jeannette Walls wrote The Glass Castle, it is the story of her life growing up in a somewhat dysfunctional yet loving family. Consequently, she uses vivid details and language to help the reader to really feel and understand what

Parts of the story that do not reflect myself or my experiences include the gender of the student, myself being a male, and the parents moving away from the school due to their child’s dissatisfaction with her classmates. My adopted family did not care about the bullying I endured, so I was forced to shut myself off and find other ways to entertain myself, including books at school and video games at home. The story itself does contribute to a point made that many stories are “also found to be lacking the structure of the American economic system including social institutions, education, and business as well as how these structures can perpetuate generational poverty” (Kelley and Darragh, 2011 p.266). For the book I see as a window, I selected Amazing Grace by Mary Hoffman. The plot of the book is a young black girl named Grace who has an active imagination and sees herself as the protagonist in her adventures.
This whole book follows along a little girl and a museum that she found.
