Words: 740 / Pages: 3

Harris claims that Doctorow's complete abandonment of punctuation and the formal sentance in this book are reminiscent of Thomas Pynchon, but it seems as if he is trying desperately, (and badly) to search for his own style, a way to test his own limits as an author. While the language and flow of the book is hard to grasp in the beginning, it soon becomes somewhat more clear to the reader and seems to move the pace of the book along faster .....

Killer Angels
Words: 668 / Pages: 3

.... South took. It is clear where each of the battles were taking place and why the generals try to use the land for their own advantage. It was very interesting to read about the different strategies and tactics the generals utilized in the attempted destruction of their enemies. The well-deserved rave reviews that litter the front and back covers drew me to it, but Shaara's powerful writing style and stunningly human characters drew me into it. Shaara has an amazing ability to portray the major players of the battle, whose real personalities must have since been lost over a century of historian analyzation, as real people. Shaara portrays the terrible .....

Words: 1079 / Pages: 4

.... of what Orwell saw happening in his national government with the coming of English Socialism, but a warning of the consequences of contemporary governmental practices, and what they where threatening to bring about. Perhaps the book seems so bleak because the events in the book are a somewhat logical projection from current conditions and historical environment that Orwell observed in 1948.

To Kill A Mocking Bir
Words: 322 / Pages: 2

.... commit, the book made the situation more dramatic because of how well it was described. The book was less emotional because the event just occurred. There were no in-depth descriptions of the situation. Another example of this point was when Boo Radley had saved Jem and Scout from Mr. Ewell. When Scout told Boo it was alright for him to pet Jem, it was better described in the book.
