Brief Summary Of 'Epoch': A Walk In The Woods

“Night. No one prayed, so that the night would pass quickly. The stars were only sparks of fire which devoured us. Should that fire die out one day, there would be nothing left in the sky but dead stars, dead eyes” ( Wiesel 18).

‘The Company of Wolves’ is a twisted and raw reinvention of ‘Little Red Ridding Hood’ while symbolizing female sexuality and embracing it. The wolves in the story have been described by the author as skin and bones, “so little flesh on them that you could count the starveling ribs”. Their food source has been taken away by

We all have hidden inner conflicts that we have buried deep within our souls. In the story “Hunters in the Snow written” by Tobias Wolff he gives us greater understanding of what adults experience and the extreme limits that people will go through just to be accepted, the author stimulates our senses with the use of very descriptive examples using figurative language. The writer uses weather for the overall setting of the story “Tub waited for an hour in the falling snow”. The setting which the author obviously uses weather takes place during the winter; this determines that there is some darkness and cold death possibly being present.

I have trapped over 40 years at Peerless Lake many years ago and now returned and have travelled all my life in the woods. I could tell you many instances of timber wolves and the moose, and on those days there were millions of rabbits as feed for the wolf [my emphasis], and today very few rabbits.

The Ninemile Wolves is a compelling nonfiction story told by Rick Bass, while Bass approaches the wolves with a mixture of awe, compassion, and fascination; others in the area are less welcoming, including some local ranchers, hunters and politicians. The wolves are studied by Bass, Rick Jimenez, and others of how they are endeavoring for their presence in the Ninemile Valley in Montana. Bass consumes his reader into his work by using both scientific and spiritual relevance of the wolves, and how they balance the ecosystem. While the biologist are cheering for the survival of the Ninemile pack ranchers, hunters, and politicians are concerned that they will attack livestock and decimate the population of elk and deer. However, despite all the stereotypes put into place the wolves survive off small mammals, and stray away from large pray. Bass anthropomorphizes the wolves by saying they have a soul like humans, and their spirit has an effect on the Ninemile Valley.

About a century ago, a man by the name of Farley Mowat was sent to the frozen wilderness of Canada to examine the actions of wolves and how they affected the plummeting of the caribou population. While studying a pack of 7, he acquired a deep feeling of admiration for this certain pack of wolves. Almost halfway through the novel, Mowat gives each of the three adults a name that goes along with their role in the family.

A beautiful, clear night in the Rocky Mountain backcountry, stars fill the moonless night sky, and one can not help to think of how peaceful it is.
