Mother Felt Didnt Love Sykes
472 wordsIn the readings we have done thus far, the majority of them show women under the control of men. The Revolt of Mother (Freeman), for example depicts mother taking the control away from man or Father, as they are called in the story. She does this by taking all of their things and moving them into the new barn Father has built for the animals. I see the same correlation in the story of Sweat (Hurston), as Delia decides instead of putting up with Sykes crap she will just go on without paying him a...

Fried Green Tomatoes Homosexual Relationship
1,641 wordsMy first impression of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Caf'e was that it was a "woman's" novel. This was because the movie, which was more popular than the book, was advertised as a "chick flick." To say the least, I was wrong. The novel poses many issues that face the people of the 1920 's and 30 's, and makes one think about what people have struggled through. The novel addresses the issue of racism before the time of Martin Luther King Jr. and the Civil Rights Movement. It tells of t...
