    Summary Of Barbara Ehrenreich's Nickel And Dimed

    In Barbara Ehrenreich’s book Nickel and Dimed, Ehrenreich explores the dynamics of social stratification by gender in working class America. Similarly to race, Ehrenreich shows how gender and gender roles are a part of a closed system in the American workforce. One can first see this early on in the book when Ehrenreich works as a waitress. Ehrenreich describes a dynamic in this work setting in which female workers are subservient to a dominant male manager who is very critical. She mainly shows this by introducing the reader to Joan,…

    Ray Bradbury's 'The Women'

    In the story “The Women” by Ray Bradbury, the central theme is that ‘Death is inevitable’ even if you are warned. The story consists of a man and his wife enjoying a vacation on the beach, but the man does not realize that this vacation will lead to his death. Bradbury intentionally mentions that the man is on the beach with “…a woman in a black bathing suit…” (Bradbury 104). Furthermore, since Bradbury utilizes the color black to describe the woman’s bathing suit, this foreshadows the death of her husband because the color black symbolizes death. Additionally, the story takes place in autumn since “It was the end of the season. September. Things were shutting down…” (Bradbury 104). In other words, Bradbury uses fall because that season symbolizes…

    Analysis Of Hilda Polacheck's 'I Came A Stranger'

    In her autobiography I Came a Stranger Hilda Polacheck reveals the conflicting role of women in the late 19th / early 20th century as workers, caregivers, and social activists in a conflicting age of progress, hardship and missed expectations. Coming from a very traditional Jewish family in Poland it seems that Hilda Polacheck was destined to be a full time mother and wife never having immersed herself in the American society where women were becoming more and more relevant. The death of her father changes all of this forcing herself her mother and her siblings to fight for survival. This fight is what not only transformed Hilda Polacheck into the woman we remember her as today, but into an American as well.…

    "Penny in the Dust" by Ernest Buckler

    Sometimes in life meaningless and insignificant objects could worth more than a treasure for a person. A penny, something that someone would consider unworthy, could symbolize a strong relationship between a father and a son that could not freely express their love for each other due to the fear they carried inside them "If Father hadn't been there, I might have told her the whole story." Despite the fact that the Father didn't express his love for his son on a regular basis, he offered Pete a very shiny penny that revealed the hidden love he had for him. Although the act of giving the penny to his son without him showing any desire for it, "He couldn't offer me anything until I had shown some sign that the gift would be welcome.", Pete accepted the penny gratefully, without commenting too much about it ""Oh thanks," I said. Nothing more. I couldn't expose any of my eagerness either." However, the special gift meant a lot more to Pete than just a penny "I had never seen a shining new penny before that day. I'd thought they were all black. This one was bright as gold. And my father had given it to me." From that last chain of words he had spoken, the reader could observe that the gift had an emotional value attached to it, because of the hidden love of Pete's father. It seems for Pete that all his father's trust was put into that one single penny, the shiny one that he had just receive.…
