is of little help when, in the orthodox
psychoanalytic sense, normal dreams are
experienced with a hazy consciousness and the
absence of an ability to act. Or after waking when
we report to a biased psychotherapist about our
even more hazy and distorted observations and the
associations connected to them. In order to gain
insight into our psychological problems and
resolve them, it is much more impo...

rejected by the jury, which led the jurors to have
a reasonable doubt about the boys guiltiness. I
will present this evidence in chronological order
and support why there is a reasonable doubt that
would lead each juror to change their view of the

Food And Shelter Stream Of Consciousness

Jose Saramago received the Nobel Prize for
Literature in 1998. Although several of his books
were available in English translation, not many
people in the United States had read his novels

masters of storytelling and fiction of our time.
His language is unimpeachable and he plays with it
often, calling attention to it, even interrupting
the story to reflect on words and modes of
expressing thoughts. Blindness is a powerful and
disquieting allegory...

Jack And His Hunters Lord Of The Flies

during meals. Lord of the Flies kept my interest
with very little slow moving dialogue and lots of
vivid description. The thing I probably liked the
most about Lord of the flies was the theme of the
story. This topic was very intriguing. It dealt
