Santa Clause Drivers License
1,250 words
Jules de Gaultier stated, Imagination is the only
weapon in the war against reality. I think the war
against reality is the process of aging and
imagination is our naivet that shields us from the
frightening world. By imagining that situations
will never be uncomfortable; girls will never
experience heartbreak; men will always have jobs
to support their families; and people will never
become sick, we are setting our selves up for a
slap in the face when, inevitably, we are forced
to notice how t...

Year Old Girl Pity And Fear
1,094 words
When "Where Are You Going, Where have you been?"
was written in 1966, it was interpreted many
different ways. Many feminist and womens rights
groups saw the story as an symbol of violence
against women. Others believed it was a
demonstration of "pure realism" and the
"grotesque. " Joyce Carol Oates has never
substantiated or refuted any of these claims, her
only comment on the story being that Bob Dylan's
song, "Its All Over Now, Baby Blue" was on her
mind while writing it. No matter what view o...

Nineteen Eighty Four Animal Farm
1,108 words
Animal Farm was written between November 1943 and
February 1944, but was not published until August
1945, principally as a result of political
objections that arose over the book's attack on
Stalin and the Soviet Union. It was turned down by
a number of publishers in England (including T. S.
Eliot at Faber and Faber) and America. One
American publisher rejected it because, he said,
Americans were not in the mood for animal stories.

of an insecure newlywed, while Hamlet is centered
on an idealistic avenger of justice. Hamlet is
smarter, and with maybe the exception of his

the drug was that it was very unstable and that it
could eventually lead to death. Obviously you
believe most stuff you read in the news, and so I
took the news to heart about ecstasy. The problem
was that the sour...
