Once More to the Lake is an essay mainly about how the author/dad‚ E. B. White‚ can’t quite seem to let go of his childhood.

I chose to compare “A Prison‚ A Paradise” by John Jeremiah Sullivan and “Once More to the Lake” by E .B. White.

They temporarily suspend their daily lives to take a trip to spend time in a different environment. Both places they choose to visit can be considered at least somewhat remote‚ secluded‚ and‚ for all intents and
