The opening chapter paints a vivid picture of the situation facing the drought-stricken f .....

.... same person could be gentle, nice and kind when around family but may feel the need to appear superior around other people.

.... sequences surround a pair of banquets. Each of these scenes has a meaning beyond the obvious, however. Food is equated with life and excitement, two subjects into which this story pursues.

.... is a "Niger-lover" but its not that way at all he is just a man apart from prejudice he feels that everyone should have their rite to be justified.

They were in shock they showed so much hardcore evidence but it seemed as though the jury felt like if they ruled him not guilty they would be disliked by the rest of the town. But at the end tom Robinson was killed trying to escape or at least that’s what they told everyone. I think that they just killed hi .....

.... Carton dies. In what sense may we see Carton's dying in Darnay's place as Christ-like? It wipes away his sin, just as Christ's death washed clean man's accumulated sins. For readers who choose the negative view, Carton's death seems an act of giving up. These readers point out that Stryver's jackal has little to lose. Never useful or happy, Carton has already succumbed to the depression eating away at him. In the midst of a promising youth, Carton had "followed his father to the grave"- that is, he's already dead in spirit. For such a man, physical deat .....

.... and danger. It has commercial value as well as the population of life in it. It is dark and treacherous though, and every day there is a challenge.

His mind snapped at that exact moment and went into "shell-shock". Tayo started very early trying to find his path, but yet his path paralleled Rocky's until the time when Rocky died. Tayo's path paralleled but was always a step behind, because he was trying to retain his heritage and still keep with the new ways. Tayo .....

.... suicide, the difference should be distinguished between the "See More Glass" that we see through little Sybil’s eyes, and the Seymour Glass that we see through the eyes of the adult world. Even though these two characters are in theory the same man, they are slightly different in some ways. You could also say that they are the same character in different stages of development. Whatever the case may be, the "reasons" for the suicide shift slightly in emphasis as the character changes. "" attempts to symbolize that the bananas in See More Glass’s st .....
