Mental And Emotional Mademoiselle Reisz
1,546 words
In all novels the use of symbols are what make the

her ideas by using carefully crafted symbols that
reflect her ch...

contemplation. The voice of the sea speaks to the
soul. The touch of the sea is sensuous, enfolding
the body in its soft, clo...
