Aokigahara's Suicide Forest Analysis

Amateur City, a city filled with confusion and intolerable human behavior. In this detective fiction novel, Katherine Forrest demonstrates the social, sexual and power dynamic of each character which all leads to the curious homicide of Fergus Parker. In Forrest’s Amateur City there are multiple analysis regarding the characters of the “Modern Office” also including the detective Kate Delafield. Amateur City portrays a huge hierarchy of the predominant human society in which the class of race, ethnicity and gender are all divided in the image of Forrest’s characters. The social, sexual and power dynamic of the “Modern Office” provides a powerful message in Forrest’s Amateur City, which clearly magnifies the realistic and true nature of

Although the circumstances nature thrust at the man were immortaly dangerous, the man’s deficit of imagination and negligence innately led to his death. Psycologically, the man was no match for the treacherous conditions around

The next trick used in this story to make it scary was the beating of the mans heart once he woke up and came to be suspicious that someone was in the room with him. The speaker describes the beating of the heart as "so strange a noise as [it] excited me to uncontrollable terror" (Poe, 3). At this point the reader may think that it is the conscious of the speaker that is really bothering him rather than the mans heartbeat. Every time the speaker refers to the heartbeat he says that it keeps getting louder and louder. One can come to the assumption that at this point the speaker is only looking for reasons to support his killing a man. And in fact it is the beating of the mans heart that drove the speaker/killer to confessing about what he has done and showing the police where the body was.

Hardly a day goes by where a murder doesn’t occur. Usually, it is in a big city, such as Chicago, but sometimes it happens in a small town, maybe even not far from you. As we see a small town called New Baltimore located just outside of Detroit, not much seemed to happen in this small town...until someone murdered Justin Mello. This event leads to a shattered town with a reminder to us all, life is just a vapor, we can never be promised another day.

For one thing, Edgar Allan Poe uses diction to charaterze the killer as a demented. The author writes "' So you see he would have been very profound old man, indeed to suspect that every night just at twelve I looked hime uponhim while he slept"'. This reveals that the author uses dark and scary words to show how the old man never knew the killer was watching him at night while he slept. Poe states"' I fairly chuckled at the idea, andpehaps he heard me: for he movedon the bed suddenly as if startled. Now youmay think Idrew back- but no."' Tis shows that the old man starts to realize someone is wastching him but the madman does not care about that he may get caught spying. The writer reconuts"' Yes he had been trying to comfort himself with these suppsitions: but he had found all in vain. All in vain, because Death in approaching hime had stalked his black shadow before him and envelped the victim."' This demonstartes that the old man cms up with ideas to calm himself but what he truely does not know is thatdaeth is going to catch hnm in his near future.

No one was supposed to perish that night. He did not wish to perform his job, but the decisions of those that expire shall always repeat. He was stuck. He moved through town, piercing through the foggy streets of town, heading as slowly as possible for the inevitable destination, just outside of town where he should wait. They would come to him, sooner or later. They always did.The calm closed around him, moving from those that chose their fate, hearing their echos seemingly drown away in the mist. He was not needed here, he would see them soon

Violence and crime have a large influence on the short story, “The Disappeared” by Charles Baxter. Throughout the story Anders, the protagonist, is often affected by the crime in Detroit. He is unaware to how dangerous the city is because of his short time spent he has spent in the United States. “The Disappeared” does well in reflecting what Detroit was like in 1990, specifically in terms of violence and crime. The short story is shaped by how Anders and the other characters are affected by the violence and crime in the city.

The city that I have chosen for my report is Dallas, Texas. Dallas is located in north central Texas on the Trinity River. I have chosen this city because I am from the north Texas area and will hopefully have a great job waiting for me in the Dallas area one day. I am also a huge Dallas sports fan, and I can’t wait until the new season starts. Many interesting things have happened in Dallas over the life of the city. Some famous TV shows were filmed in Dallas, Texas like Prison Break and Dallas. The episode of the TV show Dallas is famous for the episode titled “Who Done It” which remains the second highest prime-time telecast ever. Dallas is also the home to the first ever microchip that was invented at Texas Instruments by employee Jack s. Kilby in 1958. Dallas also knows how to have a good time, and history proves this because the first margarita machine as invented by a restaurateur Mariano Martinez over four decades ago. And lastly the Galleria Mall in Dallas is home to the tallest Christmas tree. It has almost 250,000 lights and over 10,000 ornaments on it each year. Dallas is also the place where President John F. Kennedy was shot.

The topic I chose to write about is recent urban crime in the city of Elk Grove. Over the past month, the city of Elk Grove, California has seen a spike in “headline” crime, and felonious crime in the south end of the city. Headline crime is defined as crime that will generate a large amount of media reaction. Elk Grove has recently fallen victim to an officer involved shooting, shooting that left a male adult dead, drive by shooting that resulted in a vehicle crashing into a restaurant, and numerous robberies with a firearm present. All the crimes that were just mentioned occurred in the south end of the city, besides the officer involved shooting. Each one of these crimes generated a large amount of media presence, usually unheard of in the

While explaining his new daily routine, he expressed his views on the city, “I began to like New York, the racy, adventurous feel of it at night, and the satisfaction that the contrast flicker of men and women and machines give to the restless eye” (56). When he says this, his tone is a tinge of sadness but mostly acceptance. It doesn’t seem to affect or bother him that he feels solitary in a big city. He admits that he feels lonely, but he also believes other people in New York feel lonely as well. Showing that even though a big city can be exciting and filled with opportunities, it’s not always as grand as people make it

I looked up at the black sky. I hadn't intended to be out this late. The sun had set, and the empty road ahead had no streetlights. I knew I was in for a dark journey home. I had decided that by traveling through the forest would be the quickest way home. Minutes passed, yet it seemed like hours and days. The farther I traveled into the forest, the darker it seemed to get. I was very had to even take a breath due to the stifling air. The only sound familiar to me was the quickening beat of my own heart, which felt as though it was about to come through my chest. I began to whistled to take my mind off the eerie noises I was hearing. In this kind of darkness I was in, it was hard for me to believe that I could be

Although entertaining, there is a lack of horror sensation. Natalie Dormer plays worried sister, Sara, searching for her twin in the deep Aokigahara Forest. The suicide forest as many refer to it as is located at Mount Fuji’s base in Japan. Jess, Sara’s twin sister has wandered off into the Aokigahara forest on a school field trip only to wind up lost and stranded. As Sarah searches day and night, she comes across many frightening but over dramatic obstacles. Which include, abandoned cabins, ghosts, voices, and holes in the ground. All of which are very notable in every and any mystery movie. The whole movie had a conspicuous plot from the very beginning.

After further and cumulative study of the story, one may come to the conclusion that the man in the story has totally influenced reality both in his refusal to allow perceptions persuade him from his mission as he set out to it and also in his utter confidence in his own perceptions of his unique and higher judgment maintaining an overly optimistic outset in regards to his own abilities. One particularly dire incident began, “The man was shocked. It was as though he had just heard his own sentence of death” (London 130). One can see by the word “shocked” that he clearly assumed nothing would go wrong, until it actually is done already.

discovered that his father was really murdered by him. “The spirit that I have seen

inconsistent to even tell who kill the man in the blue kimono. Not only that, the woman’s character seems the strangest out of all of them. From the accounts of the robber, wife, the old woman, and the murdered man, the narratives reinforce traditional gender roles, but at the same time, show deviations from the wife’s role during the characters’ time period.
