Essay On The Caller

Patrick Ness' A Monster Calls, is truly inspiring and an emotional novel for audiences that changes ones’ perspective towards facing death.

Scanning the darkness from left to right, seeing near where he stood, he first took in the main counter, seeing it being configured as an “L” shape. He then looked through its transparent fronts, seeing the remains of small and empty displays. Even through the dimness brought by the open door, he could tell their whiteness was dust covered. His eyes lifted, looking beyond the main counter, and then scanned slightly right. Seeing further into the depth of the room, and on its other side, sat a set of two counters travelling the far wall. Both, butted end-to-end, they led to a back area he could not fully see. He assumed that was where the back entryway was and where the killer entered.

“I wish I had a hundred years, a hundred years I could give to you.” Something Conor’s Mum said to Conor when she was laying in the hospital bed in “A Monster Calls”. This happened in both the book and the movie, but way more emotion came out when it happened in the book.

The intensity with the monster was always high and keeping the book and the movie alike by adding that high degree of excitement. The thing to top off the movie was when we find out secrets about Conor’s Mum, that left everyone with chills. Overall, the movie, “A Monster Calls”

There was more than a touch of unpleasantness contained within that safe. Across the room, however, was my real arsenal: a two-tiered bookcase made of pressed particleboard that I'd picked up at a garage sale for five dollars. Crammed in it and disguised by a simple holographic misrepresentation which caused the volumes on the shelves to appear as a complete run of the Ace Science Fiction Specials from the 1960s, was in fact such a collection of ancient tomes of mind- blasting lore as to give the cognoscenti of such things many sleepless nights: The Book of Eibon, Cultes des Goules, De Vermis Mysteriis, The Eltdown Shards, The People of the Monolith, The Pnakotic Manuscripts, the Seven Cryptical Books of Hsan, Unaussprechlichen Kulten, and the dreaded Al-azif itself, know also as the Necronomicon. Should the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse show up, even wearing Armani and Kevlar while driving SUVs and brandishing Russian assault rifles, I was ready for them. While finishing the assemblage of the gun, I glanced up long enough to make sure that whoever had entered a little less than four minutes ago wasn't, say, a Mi-Go intent on booking me for a missing-persons case--with me as the star. I'd registered earlier the sound of my client--or so I hoped-- standing and moving desultorily about the outer office. There being no indication of impatience in the light steps, I merely raised my gaze, intending nothing more than a cursory glance and a word or two of reassurance before completing my work. Instead I stared, motionless, like a hare transfixed by the glittering gaze of a

In Lesley Wheeler’s The Receptionist and Other Tales, there is an entity known only as the Voice. This Voice comes to the main character Edna as a mysterious mentor of sorts, pressuring her to act when she would rather not. It is never formally named, and when the book ends, the reader still does not know who or what the Voice is or represents. One of the main ambiguities of The Receptionist is the identity of the Voice. However, looking closely at the text, the reader can pinpoint from where this entity originated. The Voice belonged to Edna all along, yet she did not accept it at her own as it prompted her to act when she would rather leave the situation alone.

Taking a chance he opens the door, peaking out to plan the quickest route to the door. There’s no one about, meaning his mother had hopefully fled the scene.

“John, making friends? Well I suppose people can change after all. It was hardly healthy for him to shut everyone out like he did.”

Looking from side to side, I took in my surroundings. I was lying on a grey cot. There was what looked to be an operating table beside me. Where am I? I thought to myself as I sat up. The area around the bed was fairly small. The only things that sat next to me were the table, an EKG machine and my bag. I still had my leather bag? I thought, confused. Sitting on the small table next to the bed was an LCD monitor which was currently
