[ send me this essay ]
6 pages in length. The injustice experienced by Celie in Alice Walker's The Color Purple and Jean Valjean in Victor Hugo's Les Miserables may appear divergent on the surface, however, there exists an underlying theme that transcends any obvious differences. Clearly, racial intolerance and social condemnation represent Celie's injustice, while Valjean fights a vigorous battle against being a victim of social circumstance of a somewhat diverse nature.

"Life Of Pi" By Yann Martel
[ send me this essay ]
3 pages in length. Assessing the presence and value of faith in Yann Martel's Life of Pi, it comes as no surprise how faith symbolizes a component of man's existence that seeks unyielding reassurance. The problem with meaning in this particular context, however, is attempting to successfully pinpoint a single yet comprehensive connotation to the concept of faith; indeed, this cannot be achieved as long as any two individuals harbor decidedly different interpretations, particularly when one person is adrift at sea with wild animals while another is warm and secure within the safe harbor of home. No additional sources cited.

"Light In August" - Faulkner's Women Characters
[ send me this essay ]
4 pages in length. While Faulkner may be fair to his women characters in the context of his quest to portray realism, he does not go too far beyond that stringent barrier to flesh out a greater depth so they may escape the ever-present typecast existence they portray in Light in August. Both Lena Grove and Joanna Burden, for example, reflect women who – by virtue of a male dominated society punctuated with racial overtones – are wholly dependent upon men for their existence, no matter how paltry that may be. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

"Lost in the Funhouse": A Discussion of the Book by John Barth
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page review of the work of John Barth, one of the most notable fiction writers of the twentieth century. Discusses the societal need to classify and categorize such works. "Lost in the Funhouse" is a collection of short stories, essays, meditations, and jokes which stands in contrast to most contemporary approaches to the short story. Fervently resisting the century's move toward realism, Barth instead prefers to combine the past with the present into an "eclectic montage", an intertextual experience which provides something for everyone. The result is a work in which the old story is retold with a postmodern twist. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
