Lucy Montgomery's Prince Edward Island In Real Life
The writer, Lucy Montgomery, has an impressive sense of humor and her way with words is exceptionally awesome; after reading about Montgomery’s life I think that Anne represented her in fantasy world, the reason why I think that is because she has a lot of similarities with Anne I mean like they both were orphan and like Anne, Montgomery was particular about the spelling of name, and both of them loved green gables (which is Prince Edward Island in real life.) In the book the author has used a third person narrative mode to unfold the plot. The vivid descriptions of nature and Anne’s beautiful portrayal of the places in her day dream as well as her surroundings makes Lucy Montgomery a detailed oriented writer.
With her unexpected ways and boundless

    I can determine the author's style in the story ,In November. Cynthia Rylant, likes to use figurtive language in her story. The one that she likes to use the most is personification. An example she used was ,"The tree's spreaded there arms like dancers." This is personification because it is a tree pretending to be a dancer. In fact plants and animals can't do human things. Her style of writing is very funny and she used a lot of figurtive…

    I can tell you the author's style in the book, In November. The author's style is more childish. She uses a lot of figurative language such as personification, metaphors, and similies. An example from the text is that she wrote that the earth was making its bed. The author also states that to birds, berries were treasure. These are figurative language because the earth making its bed is a personification, this is true because the earth is not human so it is not Possible for it to make its bed. Also berries are compared to treasure which makes that a…

    It is my view that Anne was deaf when she was growing because she grew up in a hearing environment that viewed her deafness as a disability. She was taught to think that she had a problem and that being deaf was a disability and a hindrance to her life. Later in life though i would say she became Deaf because she was able to learn about Deaf culture and embrace her Deafness as simply a difference that does not make her any less of a person. In terms of who i’d recommend Anne’s story too I would recommend this book only to anyone who is ready and willing to read a depressing story. While it is pretty interesting and compelling the life of Anne is filled with pain because of how she was misdiagnosed and abused as a child and can be hard to get through at times. The book is great and compelling but definitely not an light beach read. Anne’s tale is one that only readers who willing to read a darker view of how Deaf people once lived should dive into. So I would say that I would recommend this book only to some. Overall i really enjoyed the book and hope others will…

    I didn’t think we’d ever get this raft finished, Charles thought. He sat on it cross-legged and stared down into the water of the pond. His friend, Pete, stood on the bank and watched him. It was calm and blue as the sky. “So,” Pete shouted, “Are you ever coming back” “No,” Charles called. “I’m staying here all night.” Pete laughed. he always laughed. “All night.” He had had his turn already, so it was mine now, Charles thought. He was in no hurry. They had worked on this raft for all summer and it was good to have it done, although it wasn’t really done, since it was kind of tipping to one side. Pete started throwing rocks near Charles. Charles knew he wasn’t trying to hit him but just to play around so he ignored him. Charles had learned…

    One of the ideas that grabbed my attention was her notion on life after death. I feel that the depth of love that Bradstreet has for her husband as well as devotion and dedication, made her believe in and eternity of happiness between the two of them. The last line of the poem which is one of my favorite lines states, "That when we live no more, we may live ever," portrays to me an afterlife that Anne believes she will share with her husband forever, even when death befalls…

    When I was reading this book, I was confused about what was happening and this made me not enjoy it as much. One thing I did not like was how Cadence would write fairy tales about a king and three sisters. I didn't understand why she was writing these fairy tales and what they had to do with the plot. But, later learned that these stories represented her her mother and aunts difficult relationship with her grandfather. I did not like these stories because I didn’t think they were necessary in the book. However, I did like how the author made it seem like in the beginning that Cadence’s life was perfect because she gets anything she wants, but when you read more into the book you realize her life is anything but perfect. I liked this aspect of the book because it made it more interesting to read about Cadence’s story.…

    Title: Faulty Vision and Hearing in the Novels of Anne Tyler Author: Angelique Hobbs Medvesky Dissertation Chair: Dr. Ronald Emerick Dissertation Committee Members: Dr. Karen Dandurand Dr. Susan M. Comfort The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the motifs of seeing and hearing in the novels of Anne Tyler. Tyler recurrently exposes her characters’ strengths and weaknesses through his/her ability, or inability, to see and/or hear. All of Tyler’s main characters possess a deficiency that obstructs both his/her view of him/herself and the world that he/she resides in. As each character struggles in the search for self, the search is often obstructed by family history, the structure of the current family, and imposed societal and marriage roles. By using visual and auditory metaphors, Tyler provides each character with various coping mechanisms that prevents him/her from seeing or hearing clearly.…

    Anne Sexton’s poem Cinderella is an analysis of the falsehood of fairytales and their inapplicable meanings to real, everyday life. Sexton’s poem, as a whole, mocks the classic tale of Cinderella by retelling the story with an analysis intertwined. This big message of fairytales being fake is reiterated throughout the poem through repetition, similes through imagery, and diction.…

    In Anne’s poem, “A Letter to her Husband, Absent upon Public Employment” Anne used metaphors to display how much she missed her husband. In her poem she wrote, “I like the earth this season, mourn in black, My Sun is gone so far in’s Zodiack, Whom whilst I ’joy’d, nor storms, nor frosts I felt, His warmth such frigid colds did cause to melt.” (Bradstreet 1)To show how much her husband’s presence meant to her, Bradstreet compared him to the sun. Her use of imagery and metaphors shows the audience that when her husband is around, her days are bright and cheery, but when he isn’t around, she feels a sense of darkness and loneliness. This poem showcases how much having their entire family together at once meant to the women of her time. It also shows how much she valued being a wife to her husband and how invested she was in their relationship.…
