    “To Kill A Mockingbird” by Harper Lee is a perfect example of how the plot progression of the story was closely related to the character development. Lee used Jean Louise, also known as “Scout” as a main model of character development, as she grows through her understandings of racism, how to handle social situations and her intelligence . The plot progression throughout the novel was very close in relationship of bildungsroman in the characters personal stories. This book being fiction is not true but it depicts how life was during the time period of the 1930’s. The characters also are very close to portraying common people of the time in Macon County of Alabama.…

    In his novel, The Secret Agent, Joseph Conrad uses strong imagery to fully describe the characters and the relationships they have with one another. Throughout the story the pattern of imagery used by Joseph Conrad would be seen in the early twentieth century of the corrupted London society. The story written by Conrad can be related back to the time error it was written in. This novel was written in an error where terrorist threats were becoming increasingly more popular. Joseph Conrad would commonly use two men as his main characters whom were both of the Russian Activist “fan club”. These men would be the focus of Joseph Conrad’s pieces.…

    You can’t get away from mysteries in this novel. Every time one is solved, it springs up another. For example, when the mystery of Sam’s identities is solved, it brings up another: why have three identities (Turtle Wexler discovers the answer behind this secret)? When Turtle discovers the true identity of the firebomber, why does she cover for her? When all of the clues are pieced together, why did they point to what seems to be an innocent soup kitchen worker? The novel truly incorporates mystery into every aspect of its story and they aren’t truly solved until the final page. If anybody can figure them out before finishing the book, then they must be a genius.…

    In the short story “The Possibility of Evil” Jackson the author shows Miss Strangeworth views as very subjective, which can be seen in the quote “Miss Strangeworth never concerned herself with facts; her letters all dealt with the more negotiable stuff of suspicion.” In the quote it clearly states that she never concerns herself with facts and that her letters are based off of her opinions. Also, this shows the readers that the text in Miss Strangeworth's letters may not actually be true because it is just based off of her beliefs. Furthermore, in the quote it states that that her letters dealt with suspicion which means that Miss Strangeworth is coming to assumptions and accusations before learning about other opinions and what the…

    The Enduring Appeal of Agatha Christie is fairly effective in regards to its structural components. Although I dislike that it begins with a question and doesn’t seem to flow nicely at first, the introduction does transition from general to specific. It also appropriately lists supporting ideas in the order they will appear throughout the body. The body paragraphs are well linked by relating each supporting argument to the characters, making the paragraph on strong characters the most effective. In addition, other works of the genre and real life events are referenced to provide more thorough analysis and depth to the supporting opinions. A variety of sentence types are used throughout the essay as well as words which effectively link ideas…

His choices were made thinking they were logical, though some weren't.

    The Lady's Maid" by Katherine Mansfield (1888 to 1923-New Zealand) was first published in 1920. The story is told in the first person by Ellen but at the same time meant to be told to “madam.” She has worked as a lady's maid for the same family for many years. This story expresses regret that this lady had wasted her life on her lady instead of having a real life. The writer Katherine has achieved this through various narrative conventions such as issues, different themes, characterisation. The story is a dramatic monologue. She is portrayed very garrulously. In a dramatic monologue, the reader overhears somebody speaking aloud to another person. The monologist has a particular reason for telling a particular story to a particular audience, and his or her speech, as in real life, is spontaneous and unrehearsed. Once she fell in love with a man named Harry who owned a flower shop. When Harry asked her to marry him Ellen was thrilled but as the wedding day got closer she chose to stay with “My lady” after all. This could show that she was afraid of new commitments even though her attitude toward marriage was very down-to earth. Ellen’s inner rebellion is quite strongly portrayed. Whenever she's tried to do something for her own…
