Walter's Use Of External Conflict In Pocketa Queep The Planee

It’s a unique story. The story is well-developed. It includes a lot of details which are all important for the end of the story. Despite one major plottwist, it is fairly predictable. It’s still a touching story.

The book entertains us in a couple ways. Not only is there one problem throughout the story, but as it goes along there are multiple problems!

An additional objection that I had for this book was that in some parts, it failed to narrow in on where the setting was. At some points, it would simply state an island, or maybe just a city name. As readers, we cannot be expected to know where these places are or what country they are in. As an author, she should have clarified these details better.

The novel, Into Thin Air, is written by Jon Krakauer. The novel was published by Villard Books in 1997 and copyrighted in 1997 by Jon Krakauer. It is considered a non-fiction novel and has also been made into a movie in 2015. It has 301 pages.

     While reading this book I found myself making notes on how I disagree with certain topics but I didn’t realize until I was about half way through that there were many good points made. Some of the good points I did notice can be found in every chapter

Jack Finney is an American author that has written many books in his lifetime, one being “Contents of a Dead Man’s Pocket”, a short story about a man who risked his life for his job. In this short story fear takes over this man’s body, he is faced with acrophobia, which is the fear of heights, and many other challenges. There is a lot of suspense created in this story and Jack Finney uses internal and external conflicts and cause and effect to fabricate that suspense.

I found it extraordinary with every decision or turning point a character faced in their lives. What I have assimilated from this book is you cannot let where you come from determine your path, it is only you who can determine your future. This is also why the author Wes was one of my favorite characters in this narrative. His story is one out of a multitude that shows anyone can have a bright future. But I did not discern any similarities with the characters and myself. We all were born into different situations and grew up around opposite influences. Overall, my impression of the novel is positive I believe it is an outstanding book and anyone else who reads it I would hope agrees. I would definitely recommend this book to people because it may help them appreciate

In the story, Manuel battles the internal conflict of whether or not he wants to stand up for him and his fellow pickers. At the beginning of the story Manuel feels deprived of his basic human rights, but by the end he feels powerful and accomplished.

Prior reading this book, I had very little knowledge about the Slave Rebellion that took place at the Stono River. I was also not very open-minded about the book. As I started reading, I started to get really engaged to the book. What really made me want to keep reading was the fact that the author was continuously looking for answers to this event. We also find out that there are different sides to this story. As he provides us previews of the different stories, I began to get very eager in finding out what they were and why were there so many to begin with.

This book was certainly one of the more difficult books I have ever read in any scenario ever. To expand upon, it was mostly due to the fact that I, at the time, was completely unfamiliar with the subject of politics. Thus leading into my first point, I did enjoy this book because I was able to learn new aspects of our world. Even more so, I was able to apply them to the real world in this upcoming presidential election. Of course with the good comes the bad, I was simply overwhelmed with information that the book did come off as confusing at many parts. Not to mention the excessive amounts of examples in history that each theme has occurred, did anger me a little bit.

The protagonist in the novel, Paul Baumer, makes many sacrifices throughout the story. For instance, when Paul was serving on the front line, taking cover in a trench he runs into a new recruit. The new recruit is paralyzed in terror and had an accident in his pants he was so scared. Paul puts his own life at risk to help the other man. He puts

Thurber highlights Mitty’s desperateness for action through the drastic differences in scenes. Also, Thurber distinguishes daydreams by incorporating much more imperative voice and literary devices compared to straight dialogue in the reality. Thurber literally makes the fantasies more alive and interesting than boring reality. Onomatopoeia is seen in 3 of the 5 daydreams, “ta-pocketa-pocketa…” in paragraph 1 for the hydroplane and the same sound for the surgical machine (The). “Rat-tat-tatting” in paragraph 14 reflects the machine gun sounds Captain Mitty heard during war.

Already I can tell that this book is more difficult than most other novels I have read. It seems as though Roth is in favor of using long sentences and complex vocabulary. I sometimes had to reread sentences a few times because there was difficult vocabulary I needed to look up and the sentences were long. I needed to read each sentence piece by piece to make sure I could understand what the author wanted to convey to the reader. Although the text seemed overwhelming when I read the first few pages; once I began reading sentences in increments I could more easily understand the text.

Walter Mitty is imaginative, and creative in his own way. “Walter drove on toward Waterbury in silence, the roaring of the SN202 through the worst storm in twenty years of Navy flying fading in the remote, intimate airways of his mind.” tells the reader about one of his fantasies (Thurber, 125). As the protagonist of the story, knowing about what happens inside his head plays an important role to the plot. Walter Mitty’s ideas contribute to the short story by making the plot more enjoyable, and gave the story more meaning.

The author lets us experience the conflict and choose the sides of the family that best describe our own sense of belonging. We become accommodated with the protagonist early on, it is the one dreaming for a better life...fortunately, dreaming about success is the motivation that keeps this family sleeping at night and working during the day. Its a story of a dysfunctional family that works together for a common cause, and
