Mice And Men Men On The Ranch
741 words
Loneliness The most terrible poverty is
loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved
(Mother Teresa). Loneliness is an easily
perceivable concept in John Steinbeck's Of Mice
and Men. It can be well understood by observing
the feelings and behaviors of the characters
George, Crooks, and Curly's Wife. Primarily,
constant affiliation with other people would not
result in loneliness. However, in Steinbeck's Of
Mice and Men a select group of characters find

Paradise Lost Mary Shelley
694 words
Frankenstein is considered to be the greatest
Gothic Romantic Novel. It is also generally
thought of as the first science fiction novel. I
have always been impressed and amazed by the fact
that Mary wrote this novel when she was eighteen
years old. What experiences and powers of
imagination led to such an innovative and
disturbing work? The idea for the novel arose in
the summer of 1816 when Mary Shelley was staying
at Lord Byron's villa in Geneva Switzerland. Not

Comparing Emily Dickinson Poetry The poetry of
Emily Dickinson is distinguished by a predominant
pensive mood of anxiety and by ironic honesty of
powerful personal thought that is beyond
conventions and prejudices of the surrounding
world which she rejected. Evidently, the poets
voluntary seclusion signified her rigid division
between her all-sufficient inner world and the
