Comparing Stunt Pilot By Dillard And Spring Ehrlich
644 wordsThe Stunt Pilot by Annie Dillard and Spring by Gretel Ehrlich are two very different essays and I enjoyed one and not the other. The Stunt Pilot was much more engaging and you felt as if you got into the story. Spring was sporadic and I felt as if the essay kept jumping from one thought to the next. Throughout these two essays, the reflection was a lot the same but the tone and voice were very different from one another. Annie Dillard's essay was a great look into the stunt pilots world. Her ton...

Number Of Missions Colonel Cathcart
2,696 wordsThe name of Catch- 22 Catch- 22 The name of the novel I read is Catch- 22 by Joseph Heller. This novel? s uniqueness makes it hard to classify but I would classify it as an anti-war novel.

Heller uses World War II as an almost invisible framework in which he places a number of vaguely related stories presented in no particular chronological order, although the final narrative does tie them all together. Catch-...
