Imagine death. What happens in your final moments? Are you going to think about your loved ones or just simply reminisce on one of the happiest moments of your existence? What would be your very final thought to think? The short story, “Bullet in the Brain”, is a very intriguing, well-articulated fictional writing piece that captures what happens in the split second of death through the main character Anders. Written by Tobias Wolff, the story follows a man who finds the cliché in anything and his final thoughts of his life as a bullet is moving through his brain. Saying I enjoyed this story would be the understatement of the century. The short story is purely brilliant and one of the most thought-provoking stories I have read in a while.

In the midst of conflict, two characters from different books lead a similar life. Kenan, a middle age man is trying to survive the siege upon his city. Paul, a boy not old enough to understand the concept of money competing for his mother’s affection.

By analyzing the conflicts of stories help readers understand why the specific characters act certain ways. We better comprehend the characters’ personality and why the flaws of other character affect the main character. Are main characters’ problems the result of other characters’ personality flaws? Characters endure arduous situations and it is because of another character’s flaw. Being possessiveness, overly critical, and controlling of others are the reason for main characters problems.

Stories like A&P by John Updike and Bullet in the Brain by Tobias Wolff provided characters, and situations in which the reader was able to make their own comparisons and reflections; for me in particular, I was left to interrogate my true identity, and anticipate what the future holds for me, all based on the similarities I share with the characters in the stories.

How would you describe the lives of two different authors, Mary Rowlandson and Olaudah Equiano? In two similar narratives, the authors Mary Rowlandson and Olaudah Equiano describe their lives while being taken captive. In Rowlandson’s, from A Narrative of the Captivity, she describes why she was taken captive, how she was treated and the portrayal of her captors. Also, in Equiano’s narrative, from The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, his story compares to the way Rowlandson wrote hers. Although the lives of these two individuals compare in many ways, there are also ways they are contrasted.

The two characters I decided to talk about are Eckels from A Sound of Thunder and the Narrator from The Scarlet Ibis. Even though these two characters are in very different situations, have very different conflicts, and are very different from each other, these two characters still have some interesting similarities. And Even though they do have some similarities to each other they show them in complete different ways from each other.

Even when people do not realize it, everyone is always learning from other people. Characters in stories all have a variety of different personalities. One character from the stories desires to be daring and fearless, while the other character is both both of those qualities. Since one character desires to be something that he is not, he puts his imagination to the test and makes his own perfect scenarios.

In this research, I plan to understand the persona’s voice and their period. Due to both author’s creativeness, I hope to find a few symbolisms and ideals that are still being implemented today. Both stories’ personas try to identify themselves as someone worthy of improvement, in social aspects. However, we might be concern that they might not pursue their known agenda and instead used all wordiness as an excuse for their actions

The characters, Tom Buchanan and Jay Gatsby from The Great Gatsby have a lot of similarities but they also share many differences. Both Tom Buchanan and Jay Gatsby have an enormous amount of wealth but their personalities are very different from one another. The two characters use others for their own good. I will be comparing and contrasting these three topics in this essay.

With all of these similarities and differences presented, one can see how alike as well as different these two characters can be. Stated earlier, the differences seem to

In the stories “ All Summer in a Day” and “The Chair on the Top of the World, this essay is about how Margot from “All Summer in a Day” and Tomas from “The Chair on the Top of the World are similar. “The Chair on the Top of the World” is about a boy named Tomas who wanted to sit on the chair on the top of the world. At the end, he found the chair by using the riddle a dragon told him. “All Summer in a Day” is about a girl named Margot who wanted to see the sun. She wasn’t able to see the sun when it came out because her classmates loked her in a closet. This essay is going to talk about them both being ignored by other characters in the story, how they are both have a determined character, and how they are both different from other characters

The characters that I chose to compare and contrast were Serena and Captain Quayle. Serena Henderson is a teenager from 2017 and she is from Australia. Captain Quayle is a hardened sea captain who lives on the time traveling ship known as the Mary Alice. Serena is different from Quayle because she is overly confident and thinks that she is qualified, but she usually just messes up or gets lucky. Serena is also very dependent on her apparator (cell phone). However, in the final fight of the book the heroes of the Mary Alice could not have saved the day without her and her apparator.

When the same person features in the literature of two different stories written by the same author, they often show differences between behavior and description.
