.... of the Puritan community and treated as a sinner. Then after several years, the meaning of "A" change to able, for her ability to create her beautiful needlework and for her unselfish assistance to the poor and sick.

.... kills a member of the Socs, they must take refuge inside an abandoned church in another town to escape the police.

It is suitable for readers of all ages, from adol .....

.... the luxuries in life, they were living in a land free of Dustbowl worries. “…the Californians wanted many things, accumulation, social success, amusement, luxury, and a curious banking security…” The Californians had already established the conditions that the Okies were in search of. They were now attempting to attain extras, and feared that the arrival of the Okies would halt this endeavor. The Okies motives were much nobler than the Californians’; but the Californians still felt that the Okies had no right to invade their l .....

.... he would do for his profession. The wheels of Jurisprudence are always turning, and I came to realise how Greenspan worked and bargained for his status in the country to be solidified. This book also flourished with innovative situations pertaining to the most diversified of criminal charges, to the most uncanny regions of law ever dealt. It was this thorough look at Greenspan's life which impressed this reviewer the most. It was quite clear that after the fourth page, I came upon the conclusion that this casebook would create a most influential reaction to an .....

.... because he is fearful of the reprocutions. Macbeth says, “ If {we} should fail”. This shows that he is fearful and too cowardly to act. Lady Macbeth also states, “Are thou afeard to be the same in thine own act”. Again showing how cowardly Macbeth is because he will not act. Likewise Macbeth is a coward because he murders Duncan in the middle of the night and does not give a formal challenge. Instead he pretends to be his friend then kills Duncan while he is sleeping. This is what a coward would do. Likewise Macbeth also shows cowardi .....

.... the narrative. The story itself is like a "mural, [the] falling together of accomplices." Ondaatje tells of ordinary people who’s stories interlock and intersect, with many "fragments of human order". Ondaatje does not tell the stories loosely and scattered with no real purpose in mind, he employs recurring images and motifs, for e.g. moths and insects, feldspar.

.... Americans and native American rituals that it was kind of getting a little old, but never the less I gave this book a chance and it turned out to be a good gamble. That was becuase this book was different in the sense that it got way more in-depth with the beliefs and different legends of the native Americans than all other books that I have read. That provided a new outlook and different feel which helped keep my attention. What I also found interesting was the similarity of the religious beliefs that these particular native Americans had to Seventh day Advent .....
