    Instead, her story was one of defiance and rage against her circumstances. Repeatedly, Ung actively resists the values and propaganda of Angkar (Ung, p. 132). Her family is framed in the same purposive manner. Her mother’s resistance and the depictions of her siblings’ sacrifices illustrate how Ung found meaning in family amidst the horrors. Moreover, the structure of the book resembles many purposive narratives because it depicts fighting against events to return home (Warren lecture). Ung defied Met Bong to visit Ma and she struggled out of Cambodia to return home years later (Ung, p. 152, 160, 238).…

    A year ago, I bought a small, blue notebook for a dollar at target. It holds 82 pages, each about the size of my palm. Their paper is made from the same thin, gray material used in newspapers. On the cover of the book is a picture from the children’s story Oh, the Places You’ll Go! by Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel). In the image, the main character in the tale, a small man dressed entirely in yellow, laughs as he sails a hot air balloon across a cotton ball cloud sky. I’ve inscribed the places I hope to one day travel inside the notebook. Some, like Bolivia’s Salar de Uyuni salt flats and the city of Bagan in Myanmar sound foreign to my ears. Other pages are occupied by more local attractions. They list places like Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona and the statue of liberty in New York. Although I can only dream of traveling across the globe, in the Martin Handford book series, Where’s Waldo?, the protagonist of the tales, Waldo, easily gallivants across time and space. If I possessed Waldo’s peripatetic powers, even for just one day, I would not waste the…

    A setting about the impact of the setting is, “in the city that the four men live is not an ideal place you would not want to live in.” There are a few reasons why this setting affects the lives of the four men. My first reason is the in that area the en live in call it a “lockup” in New York which does not sound very pleasant. In that city, there is a lot of crime and violence, which most people do not want. For instance, there is a man murdered and robbed for money at his own convenient store. In addition, Steve (the protagonist) is in detention center willing to take his life so he would spend a day in jail. I do not think it would not happen in any other setting but the likely hood of it being in a different setting there would be a different plot. Such as if, the setting was in a wealthy neighborhood. There is a less of a chance not of crime and violence in that setting. An example to support this says, “The best time is to cry at night, when the lights are out and someone is getting beaten up screaming for help.”…
