    What is particularly fascinating about Shining City is that it has a ghost‚ but unfortunately that ghost only makes an appearance right at the end‚ and the ghost is not even there for revenge‚ which is slightly disappointing. It is clear from the first page of the play that it is pretty much all chaos. While the play has a story that drags on‚ it definitely does not follow the classical structure. It leaves the reader in a state trying to decipher everything they just read‚ and it has no “regular”

    Lamb To The Slaughter I believe that Roald Dahl wants us to think Mrs. Maloney is a victim. I think this because in the story Mrs. Maloney looks to be a nice‚ kindhearted woman who is devoted to her husband‚ even though he would ignore her presence when she was speaking to him. "I think it’s a shame‚" she said‚ "that when someone’s been a policeman as long as you have‚ he still has to walk around all day long." He didn’t answer. Although Mr. Maloney ignored his wife and was not interested in what

In today’s technological day and age‚ the world is filled with followers and people who simply go with the grain as opposed to going against it and forgoing what everyone else is doing.

Life without a god poses many ironies; Camus attempts to satisfy those ironies. By using many examples of symbolism‚ Camus conveys his own philosophy in a certain way so that his characters
