Compare And Contrast The Book Of The Birds
In the book the birds there is almost nothing like the movie there are different characters and different events. There are some similarities like the birds attacked the people trying to kill them all, and the birds did get a few people in both the movie and the book. There were many differences from the book to the movie. I was wondering why the birds went crazy and why they started attacking the people. The story didn’t even take place in the same town or even country in the book it was need londen and the movie was in a bay near san francisco. The first attack in the movie was on melonie when she was coming back from giving mitch his birds, and the first attack in the book was on little johnny in his room when the birds broke in and attacked

    When thinking about classic stories, what comes to mind? Most would say books like a Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens or How to Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. Many might also think of a book called the Lord of the Flies by William Golding. When thinking of classics, though, books from a long time ago tend to not come to mind, like the Bible. The Bible is thought to date back to the 6th century B.C. and one of the most well known stories throughout all of time is the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Some stories even take inspiration from this story in the Bible, even a story mentioned earlier: Lord of the Flies. These two stories are alike in quite a few ways, including how both of the stories had characters that tried to create the perfect paradise, they both had an Adam and an Eve, and they both had a beast.…

    Poetry native to the era it is written invokes the feelings, struggles, and daily life of those that are encased by that world. Society as a whole grows exponentially and influences from the past and present create a ‘perfect storm’ for emotional turmoil, therefore the need for poetry is necessary. These emotions can be shown in varying forms including shifts, allusions, and other thought-provoking literary techniques. In the poem “No More Birds”, Ari Banias uses pessimistic repetition and a shift from 3rd person to 1st person point of view to convey birds as civilizations duplication, which leads to the central idea that society may create unattainable beauty standards.…
