Rhapsody In The Rain Dialectical Journal

In the book, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr, Doerr changes the narration of the book by interchanging the two characters’ perspectives. I think that the narration change between the two characters made the book more intriguing to read. One example of when the story was more intriguing was in chapter eight where Marie-Laure was hiding from the German soldiers who had been searching the house for a couple of days. This part was really intense because the soldiers wouldn’t leave until they walked away with what they wanted. The next section went on to tell the story about Werner and his mission in Saint-Malo. Werner’s interruption made the story more suspenseful because I had to wait a couple of chapters before finding

Dickens uses Carton to symbolize resurrection in numerous parts of the book. "I am the resurrection," Carton calls himself. Dickens uses this specific character to symbolize that because of how Carton got Charles Darnay out of prison, and saved him from death therefore he symbolically resurrected him, by saving his life.

I would rather live in the World State due to life on the “savage reserve” being hazardous. On the reserve, food is not guaranteed. In 1984 it is stated that the environment of the savage reserves is so inhospitable that it is not productive to establish civilization in these areas. To me, living in the World State would mean losing my identity, so I wouldn’t miss the freedoms that I have now. On the other hand, on the savage reserve I would be aware of the missing food and absence of any luxury. Also, based on Bernard’s experience in the book, I would have a hard time fitting in on the reserve as a white person.

There are multiple details that stood out as particularly true to life in my view. One was the nariartator that it is telling the story/ his view point main character mentions what check out aisle number. It mentions how the three girls looked. The character payed attention to how the girl that seem to be the leader was walking saying “she came down a little hard on her heels, as if she didn’t walk in her bare feet much” this quote helps you picture how the person and might help picture what the girl was walking like. He gave details to where he was and what he was doing when the three girls was doing. He mentions that “I’m in the third check-out slot with my back to the door so that I didn’t see them until they had reach the bread” this helps the reader to set up an mental image of the store as they are reading.

“They were not badly off whilst Morel was in the hospital. There were fourteen shillings a week from the pit, then shillings from the sick club, and five shillings from the Disability Fund.” (pg.87)

The chapter starts off with victor’s dad Juan giving him the talk on of how everyone loves Mexicans, on how he should start studying girls so when time comes he will choose the right one That he should be a brave man and he gave the talk on what he should and should not do in his first day of school such as stop picking his nose. The next day five-year-old victor was so nervous, while in school he didn’t want his mother to leave him and started crying in front of the class. After the teacher and victor’s mom forced victor to stay, a Mexican kid next to him started to comfort him. The teacher then screamed at them for speaking Spanish, she made it clear that English was the primary language in school. Victor was not allowed to go to the restroom,

The underworld seemed to be getting colder and I couldn’t tell if it was because I’d fled the room that was lit or because Hades’s heart had been nearly ripped out. I was weeping pretty hard by now, feeling awfully betrayed and as lonely as my injurer. I felt my way around in the darkness for a while, thankful to the slight bluish glow that seemed to at least partially lighten ones way down in the underworld.

“Would it be scarier if I told you that I would kill you or just hurt you really bad?”

The second some portion of this book is more centered around how Augusts cherished one feel about him and with him. I welcome the writer for taking from August family and companions point of view since it will help perusers comprehend the story better with more noteworthy profundity and feeling. For example, just August's family can catch superior to anything anybody what he needs to experience. A decent illustration of would be that they generally guard August against open and never dither. To me, creator's message was excessively mindful individuals of how little acknowledgment we have, and how little we bargain? I trust that on the off chance that it was my kin in August spot I would act likewise to August's kin and folks. It is just characteristic that we think more about our blood relations than whatever other relationship.

If you read the diary of a high school girl, what could you learn about her? The name of her best friend, what kind of a person she is, and maybe even signs of troubles deeper than the bad grade she got on her last chemistry exam would pop out at you. She probably would not explicitly state these things, either—they would become apparent simply by looking at how often her best friend’s name appeared within the pages, how she interacted with the people around her, and how she described her thoughts and feelings. Seeing things directly from her perspective would give you a unique look at who she was as a person, what her relationships with other people were like, and what her take on events was, all without ever being told what they were like

Before me loomed the old observatory which would be our home for the next year. Its walls were an expanse of red brick stacked on red brick, contrasting the two white front doors and the white domed tower. It sat atop Henrick Cliff with large fields sloping down from the front of the house. The tower could be seen rising from the back of the house, with the cliffs edge and sea beyond that. The observatory looked like a forgotten castle, waiting for the next rulers to occupy it.

Being a prisoner of war can change a person, dramastically. World war two, one of the most devastating wars; over fifty million people died, and yet this number is just a roundabout. One main factor, called the Holocaust, the extermination of six million Jews, gays, and anything German’s deemed unfit. Based on a true story, we venture through the mind of a young Jewish boy named Elie. Elie one day was taken from his home, and sent to a German concentration camp known as Auschwitz. Elie is soon to realize that this place is no joking matter. Through the process of selection, the disassemblement from his loved ones, and the deportation of saved ones to specialized camps, Elie questions his faith in God, himself, and his welfare of family members.

I, Chapter 24, am obviously the most significant. The others were hardly competition, however, 19 did give me quite the run for my money. I won because I show the message behind the story most clearly. Racism is undeniably present in this town, unfortunately, and my job was to show just how prevalent it is. I believe that I did quite the fine job in passages like this one, “‘Tom’s dead’ Aunt Alexandra put her hands to her mouth. ‘They shot him,’ said Atticus” (Lee 239). Because of the town’s racism, Tom would have never been given a fair chance, therefore, he gave up and was then shot 17 times. If that doesn’t show the town’s usual disease, this passage does, “The handful of people in this town who say that fair play is not marked White Only;

“I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.” –Muhammad Ali. My hero is a hero to not only me, but to people all around the world. Muhammad Ali is a hero for many reasons, not only is he one of the best boxers in the world he never gave up on his goal at becoming the best in the world. No matter what obstacles were in his way he never stopped.

Mohamed Ali is my inspiration. Some People will say he was the greatest boxer, and a great athlete; But for me it’s more than that. He was different than everyone at the time, maybe everyone in general. If you see anyone complimenting themselves before they start a match or a game, It’s one of two things they are crazy or conceited. He wasn’t any of that, and he complement himself all the time. When someone asked him before why do you compliment yourself before the match, and he said that you need to make yourself feel better and feel great same as you need compliments from others. Mohamed Ali said you need to believe in yourself, and make yourself feel confident.
