Each description of an item Freyer listed for auction included either a personal story or entertaining information on why someone should purchase this item.

Since Freyer style of descriptions were so unusual, here are three examples to demonstrate the differences to

On the “fine yellow shoes” in “all my life for sale” the author utilizes a subjective description. He firsts describes how he got the shoes, he then continues describing how he felt wearing the shoes.

It is evident that there are still a number of falsehoods that contribute to the adversity many people of color have to overcome in this country. Yale Law School professor, Harlon L. Dalton and Sociologists Naomi Gerstal and Natalia Sarkisian dissect two such falsehoods in their respective essays. In his essay, “Horatio Alger” Dalton takes on the rags-to-riches myth commonly portrayed in Horatio Alger’s works of fiction. Likewise, Gerstal and Sarkisian’s study on Black, White, and Latino families reveals data that debunks the widely held belief that families of color are weaker and more disorganized than their white counterparts. While both essays examine myths that negatively affect Black and Latino people, the authors often use different

In the book Behind the Beautiful Forevers, author Katherine Boo sheds light on the topic of corruption. Corruption is something that is seen everywhere, but varies in depth. She chooses to focus on India, because she is fascinated with how so many people are impoverished while others prosper. Boo is able to convey both the benefits and downfalls of corruption within a community by deciding to only focus on a sliver of people from a single slum. She chooses to focus on the citizens from a slum called Annawadi due to sense of possibility in the community. Boo decides to watch this community for several years to see who gets ahead, who doesn’t,

He refuses to talk about his early life, although he does explain that his older brother “D.B” sold out to writing for Hollywood.

The Saturday before Christmas vacation began, Holden overlooked the football field, where Pencey usually
