Alice Monologue
The sound of breaking glass stopped her. Alice took a step back. Turned around and felt the chill of the winter wind on her neck. Standing behind her was a stranger to her heart with the broken wine bottle at his feet. As the sun was rising over the barn, nature stood still. You could hear nothing but the tires traveling down the gravel road. This was good-bye. This was the end. Alice is the type of girl that will light up the room simply with her presence. She is smart, kind, pretty, funny, and hard working. Her intelligence reflects through her studies never seems to get any grade lower than a B, some may say she is a perfectionist but she would respond that she is not a perfectionist just diligent. Her kind heart is reflected towards her interaction with other people, the way she smiles and laugh always including others. She’s the type of girl who sends simple reminders of how she cares for you. Her beauty is always consistent. She is normally well put together but on those lazy mornings when she will try to convince you she didn’t get ready, her hair will still …show more content…
Kayden made Alice close her eyes and use his voice as a direction. Being so unfamiliar with her surrounds she had nothing to help direct her than the gravel on her feet and the warmth of Kayden’s minty fresh breath. She opened her eyes to find a candle light dinner in the middle of the dusty barn floor. All that was placed on the table was a single rose and a bottle of Kayden’s family’s finest wine. He pulled out her chair and gazed into her eyes. He opened his heart and made it clear that though it has only been a short month he has fallen for her. He hands her the bottle of wine, took a deep breath and said, “This bottle will be the symbol of my love for you. I will keep it forever and cherish it all that I have.” He leaned over Alice’s perfect brown hair and kissed her

    In the piece entitled, "Alice” the author, Paulette White uses a narrator to portray the main character. This narrator does not act as an observer, rather as a participant of the action, recalling it from memory. The narrator happily satisfied my curiosity about Alice, with the repugnant recollection of the once drunk mother, to the now sober and charismatic grandmother. The narrator's relationship with Alice is unique.…

    When Alice becomes sad and emotional about Steve Ketchel’s story, the narrator feels bad for her when she “was shaking all over and I looked and saw she was crying” (389). Even though the narrator knows that Alice is not very respected in society, he still cares for her feelings. Many people may believe that the story about Steve Ketchel is fake and may even disrespect Alice for her feelings towards him, but the narrator believes Alice’s feelings for Steve Ketchel are real and doesn't find satisfaction in the sadness that Alice feels. Similar to how Steve Ketchel calls Alice a “lovely piece” (390), the narrator thinks Alice is beautiful instead of thinking she is disgusting. To Alice, Steve Ketchel is a man who respects and loves a woman for her beauty as a person instead of her weight or low status in society, and the narrator feels the same way for Alice when he cares for Alice’s feelings and looks at Alice as a person with beautiful qualities instead of disregarding…

    Alice In Wonderland

    When one is accustomed to the ideas within the dominant fantasy they live within, it is rather difficult to see things in a different point of view. The most effective way to change one 's perspective of the dominant fantasy is to have them not only think outside the box but being able to experience ideas that oppose the customary ideas first-handedly. Looking at Carroll 's "Alice in Wonderland" and Cohn 's "Sex and Death and the Rational World of Defense Intellectuals", the characters within these stories experience a reconstruction of their beliefs of the dominant fantasy through metamorphosis. In contrary to the dominant fantasy they are indoctrinated in, an alternative fantasy consists of new and unusual ideas which question and challenge the characters ' set of beliefs of the boundaries they live within. The alternative fantasy within a secondary world simultaneously consists of ideas from the dominant fantasy of reality. In order to proceed through the…

    In order to classify a story as a fairy tale, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, the story must be a tale containing actual fairies, an imaginable artificial story, or an absolute dishonest story. Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass are not novels about fairies or are completely false stories, but they do contain imaginable artificial plots in which a young girl named Alice travels to different worlds in her dreams. Through the creative adventure of these dream stories, one could vaguely qualify them as a fairy tale. Tolkien's perspective opposes the label of fairy tales to Alice stories by which he states that dream stories may be a fantasy of the mind, but lose their realization when Alice wakes up back in the real…

    In the Philosophy of Nonsense: The Institutions of Victorian Nonsense Literature, Jean-Jacques Lecercle explicates literary nonsense: “[it] both supports the myth of an informative and communicative language and deeply subverts it by first whetting then frustrating the readers deep-seated need for meaning.” Lewis Carroll, author of Alice in Wonderland, fabricates a humorous, yet visceral reflection of the world we live in by juxtaposing Alice’s need to implement the rules of the world above and Wonderland’s creatures’ explicit refusal of doing so. The conversations between the Mad Hatter and Alice at the tea party about Time as an abstract concept versus a lawless man, who demands appeasement, showcase the inconsistency of Wonderland by parodying…
