Symbolism Of The Scarlet Letter
.... beauty still shone. Even though the big red
letter on her chest stood for adultery.
As the novel progressed the meaning as the "A”" made a change for
the better in Hester's life. In chapters before of the novel the letter
"A" on Hester's bosom had negative meaning, but this time Hawthorne turns
the meaning around in the story to mean able. Now that she has given many
hours of time and service to the sick, poor and troubled she began to gain

time the author shares, “Such helpfulness was found in her-so much power to
do and power to sympathize-that .....

Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None: An Analysis
.... Dr. Armstrong did stray from his group. When the
General didn't show up for lunch, Mr. Rogers offered to go and fetch him.
Dr. Armstrong quickly voluntered instead. He came back to announce that he
was dead. On the morning when they found Mr. Rogers dead, everyone
overslept because he was not there to wake them up. Lombard awoke at 9:30
am. He woke the others, but Armstrong was already up and dressed. Or, the

Wright's The Man Who Loved Underground: Summary
.... the opposition between "aboveground" and
"underground" is firmly established" (Bloom 147). Though at times in his
journey, Daniels does go aboveground, he never again crosses that border
until the very end of the story when he goes up for the final time. Here,

Catcher In The Rye: Letter To The Editor - An Unfair Trial
.... no matter what the
case was if she was up against another white person. She was Mayella
Ewell; disgusting. The point is, how would Tom might have been sentenced
if he was in another town like yours and mine, say (your state here)?
There's no doubt in my mind that he would have been found innocent right
away if he was tried in my town, because of the undeniable evedence, and
the lack of racial discrimination in (your town here). The place called
Maycomb County needs to be in the hands of a better judicial system. The
judge would have found some way to find him guilty no matter what. So,
readers, I'm just trying my best to get m .....

the beginning of the novel. Toni Morrison attempts, through these three
characters to illustrate how the narrator's perception of each character's

Through this technique, she is able to demonstrate that circumstances and
events are not always as simple or truthful as they seem.
The first impression of Violet is presented through the
"official story" established at the beginning of the novel. Her character
is seen as the crazy, jealous wife .....
