Upper Saddle River Nj Prentice D H Lawrence

Childhood Memories My Papas Waltz by Theodore
Roethke and Piano by D. H. Lawrence are two poems
in which grown men recall memories of their
childhood. My Papas Waltz has a quietly sad,
almost resigned tone as Roethke relives his
nightly dances with his father as a young boy.
Lawrence's Piano is somewhat dreamy as a man is
taken back by a song to his childhood. While both
are presented to us through similar personas,
striking differences are apparent throughout the
two poems. My Papas Waltz is th...

and homemakers. They were supposed to stay home,
take of the children and cook all of the family's
meals. Today women, in some places, are still not
treated as equals and have little if any rights.
As well as having unequal rights, women have been

Review of John Updike's Review It Was Sad I chose
to review John Updike's Review? It Was Sad? from
the October 14 th issue of? The New Yorker? . In
the review, Updike examines several works
concerning the tragedy of the Titanic. He cites
these works, I feel, to support his own opinion
about the event, and the different accounts of
what really happened. Updike spends some time
disproving the belief that the upper class male
passengers heroically sacrificed their own seats

internal lives, external events in a manner which
provokes us to postulate the existence of a
corresponding, non-physical onto's, entity. This
