.... because of how well it was described. The book was less emotional because the event just occurred. There were no in-depth descriptions of the situation. Another example of this point was when Boo Radley had saved Jem and Scout from Mr. Ewell. When Scout told Boo it was alright for him to pet Jem, it was better described in the book. The third point is that the pageant the night that Jem and Scout were attacked was shown in the book but no in the movie. The movie only showed them walking up to the stairs, then the scene changed and they were walking back from the pageant. The book described how scout fell asleep during the pageant and c .....

After a brief stay in Florence, where he concentrated on producing medals (including "Hercules and the Numean Lion" in gold repousse and "Atlas Suppor .....

.... narrative of preadolescent revolt. Compact, taut, and colorful, the first half presents in brief compass all then petty horrors, the banalities, the final mediocrity of the American prep school” (Geismar 195). Holden can not understand the purgatory of Pency prep, and futilely escapes from one dark world into darker world of New York City. The second half of the novel raises the intriguing questions and incorporates the deeper meaning of the work (Geismar). Holden sits on the cusp of adulthood, tethering dangerously close to his fate and reality and The Catcher in the Rye is the story of his journey into the adult world. In additi .....

.... on a crumbling wall". The "green moss" symbolizes Hester's youth, which was clinging onto the "crumbling wall", which represents her aged husband. She tries to loser herself in past memories, but reality rears its ugly head. A few moments later, her mind jumps back to reality. In astonishment, she clutches the child and places her finger on the scarlet letter. This shows that reality is unavoidable, even though we try to escape from it sometimes. This courageous journey to reality won my admiration and understanding. When I was eight years old, I distinctly remember the time when our family celebrated the Chinese New Year. .....

.... with man in a changed society. Huxley asks his readers to look at the role of science and literature in the future world, scared that it may be rendered useless and discarded. Unlike Bradbury, Huxley includes in his book a group of people unaffected by the changes in society, a group that still has religious beliefs and marriage, things no longer part of the changed society, to compare and contrast today's culture with his proposed futuristic culture. But one theme that both Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451 use in common is the theme of individual discovery by refusing to accept a passive approach to life, and refusing to conform. In addi .....

.... by Faulkner “the next generation with its more modern ideas� (qtd. in Kirzner & Mandell 81). The descriptions of her house “lifting its stubborn and coquettish decay above the cotton wagons and the gasoline pumps--an eyesore among eyesores� (qtd. in Kirzner & Mandell 80) showed a comparison of the past and present while also showing a representation of Emily herself. “The house smells of dust and disuse and has a closed, dank smell.� (qtd. in Kirzner & Mandell 81). A description of Emily in the following paragraph discloses her similarity to the house. “She looked bloated like a body long submerged in motionless water, and of t .....
