In Graciela Limon's novel, Song of the Hummingbird, she illustrated how a culture like the Aztecs or Mexica, can quickly diminish when there are people such as the Spanish that have very limited understanding about certain subjects.

A bird flies wildly about, twisting and diving. It is panicked, trying to escape the boy on the ground below, who hurls small, painful missiles at it from a slingshot. The creature of the air is a splendid sight; the wings are as if covered in jade paint and the tips dipped in a ferocious scarlet. The breast is a majestic solid blue, its throat a sulphur yellow. And the head and the tail both are a livid, dark purple: beautiful.

An attempted robbery had gone wrong, resulting in the killing of the store clerk and led to a police investigation. Bishop began to lose his mind, dealing with paranoia and a thirst for power because he owned a gun and was willing to kill again. Bishop and Jack both lust for power and do what they feel is needed to gain that power. Some might consider the characters as sociopaths, using people merely as pawns to achieve a selfish goal. The only differences between the two are the times and opposite upbringings, and that Bishop, much older and more mature than Jack, landed himself into a tight situation that weighed heavily on his conscious, whereas the young boy Jack had the option of avoiding chaos and being a civil, obedient boy with the sole purpose of getting rescued off an island.

Lying in his neighbour, Neha’s lawn, he remembered last night’s party and all the punch that he had drunk and all the bets and stupid games and, Oh God! the girls he can’t even remember how many girls he had kissed. Normally, he never hooked up with more than one girl during a party but last night was different, it was a night of firsts.

A vast city sits lonely at night, where all the building’s hollow lights are turned off, except for one. Tops of buildings darken and the volume of the streets all the way below cannot be heard. A light which pierces through this darkness of landscape is shining from the 101th floor; it’s all the way up there. The building’s window seems so far away from the street that it almost belongs more to the sky than anything else. With binocular like vision, our eyes move closer. A window of an oval-like shape appears and the light shining through it is rudely obscured with fog unseen from the pedestrian’s eye. After a few seconds my eyes uncover a pigeon’s nest resting on the parapet; it’s got three eggs and no mother to warm them. Each stick of the
