Lulu Planchet Character Traits
Patrick Bennet describes the characters in a way to give us clues about projection, personalities, and image. For example, Lulu Planchet is a tough and complex character. Her description illustrates that she is beautiful: she has big brown eyes, “long dishwater blond hair”, and amiable with a body of a model. Lulu is a very sweet girl but she lives in the past due to her old traumatic relationship. She is afraid to let someone else in and allowed the same situations happen to her again. She does not trust people easily. It took her a lot of dates with Rudy to finally tell him what happened with her ear. Also, she is very reserved and wants to keep everything closed to her just like in her apartment where everything is so cramped together. Due

    Character Analysis Of Dillion And Jazz Luther In The Book 'Define Normal'

    In other words, she sees the looks teachers give her, and it inspires her to do better in her school work and prove to them that her image does not define her personality. Her mother tries to get her to act like the rich kid she is, but the more her mother tries, the more she rejects the idea and rebels. She wears black and dyes her hair unnatural colors to hide where she really comes from, a rich family. She also hides her love for playing piano because she does not want to be classified as a rich kid, but doing so gets classified as a punk or a goth. Antonia, the other main character, is classified as smart or a teacher’s pet, so a teacher’s pet and a punk; that is not usually the types that are best friends. In the beginning of the book, they did not even want to be seen together. By the end of the book , that did not matter anymore because they were proud of each…

    The main characters are parallels to each other. For example, when Melinda and Cady start out in in highschool, they enter having no ideas what to expect. “My first class is biology. I can’t find it and I get my first demerit.” (Anderson 6). In the Mean Girls movie, Cady asked where her health class was and her friends made her miss her entire class. Another example is how they favourite one class and excel in it. For Cady shes so good at math that in Junior year, she takes senior AP trig.

    Short Story Analysis: The Bluest Eye By Toni Morrison

    The characters are repeatedly being subjected to images of whiteness offered through movies, books, magazines, toys, and of course advertisements. Early into the story, Pecola gushes over Shirley Temple’s beauty, and later on Mrs. Breedlove spends her days at the movies admiring the white actresses, wishing she could be in their place. The association between beauty and whiteness pushes the idea of beauty beyond the body’s exterior, making it a signifier of one’s value and worth. Many characters in the book believe their beauty means who they are in society, community, and…

    Distortion In The Glass Menagerie

    They live in illusions, with the memories of reality in the past, similar to 1984, where history is important to accepting of their reality. This play shows how characters distort truths to accept the fact that they cannot understand each other. Amanda alludes to her past, and is untruthful to herself in order to cope with her reality. She cannot understand her children's’ ways. As a mother, she remembers her youthful experiences, and longs for the same for her children, Tom and Laura. When talking of her past, she has an elated diction, happier than that of when she talks of the present: QUOTE AND EXPLAIN. Her past has become an illusion and is not the truth of her reality, yet it influences her language. Amanda was outgoing in her youth and desired much attention, differing tremendously from Laura. The language when she describes her lifestyle is a zealous tone, showing excitement and eagerness for her daughter to feel the same. She often tries to live vicariously through her daughter, in denial of the…

    How Does John Green Use Situational Irony In Paper Towns

    John Green has this given ability to squeeze every detail about a character into this novel. This allows the reader to be able to create a deep connection with a character based on the descriptive background, appearance and traits that the author clearly depicts. Imaging a character how an author describes really allows one to open their mind to the world of the character and their lives. However, John Green uses situational irony again to assist in the character’s development by giving the reader an explanation of the character, but later on the reader discovers a completely hidden side to the character. This is especially evident in Margo Spigelman because one may believe she is beautiful, happy, and poor when in reality she experiences an unhappy and rich lifestyle. This is shown when Margo leaves town and leaves behind those mysterious clues for those who truly understand her…

    The two most important points of view are those of Josie and Peter. The use of different points of view allows the reader to make their own opinions on the characters and interpret the situations differently. This technique makes viewing the different characters weaknesses and their thoughts on themselves and other people, “If you spent your life concentrating on what everyone else thought of you, would you forget who you really were?” (Kindle location 2105), demonstrates the characters thoughts of trying to belong, but amidst their efforts, they lose themselves.…

    More Than Skin Deep - Mad Shadows

    Louise’s entire character is powerfully ironic in that she is the furthest thing from a mother. Mothers are expected to be of caring and affectionate nature. However, Louise neglects Isabelle-Marie and treats her like an outsider since she is physically unattractive. Louise only favors her son Patrice because he reflects her outer beauty and she feels the necessity to sustain it by only nurturing him. Since Isabelle-Marie is physically unappealing, Louise does not love or treat her in the same fashion as Patrice. Isabelle Marie finally gains the courage to express how Louise has mistreated her. She exclaims, “[m]other, ever since I was a child you adored Patrice because he was beautiful and hated me, the ugly one. Patrice always Patrice! You never realized that your son was stupid, that he was an idiot…nothing but a beautiful body” (104). Isabelle-Marie’s tone is filled with contempt and jealousy while she spills out all the emotions that she had been bottling up for years. Louise always favoring Patrice due to his beautiful face even if he was just an “idiot” exasperates Isabelle-Marie. Moreover, Isabelle-Marie’s ill thoughts towards her own daughter and disfiguring her brother’s face can be seen as the result of her mother’s intolerance and lack of love towards her. Louise’s superficiality and favoritism towards Patrice transforms Isabelle-Marie to turn into a self-loathing and destructive character. Hence, Louise can be held responsible for creating this dysfunctional family. Rather than loving her children unconditionally as a mother should, she loves them based upon their looks. Therefore, ironically, even though Louise is their real mother, she fits the archetypal character of an evil stepmother due to her discriminate, mean and evil behavior.…
