Cyrano De Bergerac Life To The Fullest
597 words
Every generation has its own heroes that display,
what they believe to be, ideal characteristics.
While each is different in their own way, many of
these role models share similar qualities. Most
tend to have courage, strength, compassion, or
another respected trait, but this is not
necessarily why they win the adoration of their
followers. Cyrano De Bergerac is a perfect example
of how many protagonists win our allegiance
because his sensibilities will not be denied,
because he lives life to th...

creatures under their beds each night, but deep
down we secretly thrive on that cool rush of fear.

If you really want to hear about it, The Catcher

having a totally different story line. Narrator,
Holden, exposes himself allowing the reader to see
precisely what kind of guy he is. Although the
question of his normality is often argued, the
