theme for this semester is “The Good Life‚” but as the class read different poems‚ novels‚ and dramas‚ one will realize that “The Good Life‚” can have multiple meanings. The dystopian novel‚ Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel and the poem‚ “Waiting for Icarus‚” by Muriel Rukeyser has given me a good understanding of what the good life is about especially when one takes little aspirations and objects for granted. As the novel and the poem are being analyzed‚ the thoughts begin to evoke when

Critical Analysis of Waiting for Godot – Samuel Beckett Qaisar Iqbal Janjua Qaisar Iqbal Janjua talks about the “suffering of the being” and how this impacts significantly on views of humanity.
