When I first started reading this book I thought to myself “how am I going to read this book it seems so dry and boring.” Then I continued to read it and realized that it was hard for me to put it down. There was so much information on this topic of the War on Drugs that I am still wrapping my mind around it. It went into such detail about the war on drugs that are never talked about.

Feminist literary criticism is an approach to literary criticism that is most concerned with the role of women within the context of literature. This includes how female characters are created and understood within any given text, in addition to the role of female authors and female readers.

She said, “Voice and speech are treated as almost identical, and speech as little more than spoken language… We raid speech for its semantic meaning, and then discard the voice like leftovers, detritus.” (Karpf, Anne.

are thriving and can help us paint a clearer picture of the world’s present. Underrepresented, yet these creatures do seem to be getting more credit lately, a sign of growing interest. Robert Sullivan’s richly engaging, best-selling book, Rats (Bloomsbury USA 2005), remains popular but only profiles one of the creatures in my book. Richard Mabey’s much beloved Weeds (Ecco 2012) profiles and defends what you might expect, leaving the rest of misfit-kind to another author’s thorough engagement. Jim

In Chapter Ten, the Director uses Bernard as an example of an individual who displayed unusual behavior. The director says to the crowd in the Bloomsbury Centre, “...this man who stands before before you here...has grossly betrayed the trust imposed in him.
