Kristaps Porzingod: The 7 Foot Kristood
But then came the 7 foot Kristaps Porzingod. Kristaps wasn’t seen as the smartest or most successful merchant but he had opportunity since Caramel had left and all the other merchants around England had been dying. Kristaps had to learn quick because opportunity was coming and he needed to take as much advantage as possible. The plague was deadly but beneficial to those that could survive it , and of course 7 foot monster Kristaps overcame it. Kristaps lived in Manchester his whole life but knew that Liverpool was the place to be because of all the ports that it had. Kristaps went to his mom and said “ Mom , I vow to bring us wealth, I know I have been a bad son but my time is now.” After that he was on his way and ready for a new life.

    The Captain And Holling Hoodhood: An Ill-Fated

    To start with, Holling Hoodhood “friends” would be gone because he participated in the play and he wore tights and while the whole school came and laughed at him and he didn’t lose it. Imagine that if that happened to you, it would be horrible right. But then someone forgets their line right in front of you and you stand there and wait tell he says something. It would be funny for the crowd but inside it's more frightening that a rattlesnake(well maybe no but still). This fades into the next example, after the show he had to run in the cold all the way to the sports store. Holling Hoodhood went there to see the one and only Mickey Mantle and the Mickey looked at him and laughed at him because he was wearing tights and threw his ball that Holling Hood gave to him to sign and Holling stared at at him with a blank face and left. So the last one for this topic is about the story of the shipwrecked to the bottom of the earth. If the Captain didn’t keep his mind to getting to Antarctica, you can call him dead meat. In other words if got distracted by something he would of died. For this you have to be concentrated and if anything at one second goes wrong you're a gonner. The captain must of blocked out everything everyone says cause he was always strict. For an example, when the men were joking around on land (more so snow) he would be strict. and let's say it a very tense…

    Year Of Wonders Analysis

    It is possible that the plague is merely exacerbating tensions already present with in the village but it does so to an unprecedented degree. Thus, certain individuals of a somewhat antisocial and self-serving bent find their actions and inclinations magnified by the advent of the Plague. Josiah Bont, who is Anna’s abusive father, becomes a gravedigger, willing to pursue homicide as a stimulus to his profits; his wife, Aphra, shamelessly exploits the anxieties of her fellow villagers for monetary gain by pretending to be the ghost of the deceased Anys Gowdie. In what is, perhaps, a less culpable fashion, David Burton seizes the opportunity to advance his own interest at the expense of Merry Wickord, whose family mine has been left open to claim by the death of her parents. Instances such as these suggest that Michael Mompellion’s assertion that “the Plague will make heroes of us all”, however optimistic, is not well founded. Even more strikingly, the readiness of the villagers to turn against Mem and Anys Gowdie, whose service as healers have been much in demand, indicates that the plague deepens the rifts already exists in the community. As Jon Millstone comments, there is a grave danger that the time “will make monsters of us all”. Therefore it is the villagers own nature which acts as the catalyst for further tragic…

He needed time to think, and come to terms with the loss of his family. He knew that his town would treat him differently now but he wouldn't leave it... That town was all Fay knew and it made the eighteen year old boy sad that he really hadn't gone anywhere in his life except to the big city a few times with his father. He slipped under the fences and over the walls as he made his way to the frozen pond. His sea green eyes looked at the layer of ice and smiled running his hand over it and then tapping it listening to hear if it would keep him up. He decided to attempt this since it had been a few weeks since the tragic…
