The novel The Story of Tom Brennan by J. C. Burke demonstrates the inevitable reality that individuals must sacrifice their comforts and the safety provided by the old world in order to satisfy unmet inner desires. Burke cleverly depicts this concept through the symbolic gesture of the Brennan’s “Closing the front door of their home for the last time.” Through the use of precise timing, “4.30 am on Friday the 23rd of January,” coupled with the first person narrative allows a reflective and melancholic tone to be established, reinforcing this concept of sacrifice of the status quo. The fact that Tom was forcibly removed from his old world (Mumbilli) hints that he has left behind his family and friends in order to seek a portal to a new world (Coghill). Thus the notion of sacrifice can challenge the experiences of moving into the world and change an individual’s attitude towards the physical and emotional change that comes with sacrifice.…

It is within human nature to feel as though one can label a person as good or bad without fully knowing that person. Serial killers are a type of species presumed to be inherently evil and more flawed then the devil himself. This definition of serial killers is widely accepted among different nations because as a whole the people of the world genuinely agree on what is coherently good as well as what is coherently evil. Thanks to universal coverage and bias opinion which is divulged by the media most people have difficulties seeing serial killers in any other light besides the root of all evil. Something not quite understood by people is the lack of morality which is evident in all, not just serial killers. Sadly enough in today's society forgiveness is not something easy to gain and in order for it to be sincere the past must be forgotten, something even more difficult to achieve than equality. Considering that most, if not all, serial killers follow through with their actions based on some form of chemical inequality within their brain; it seems to make no sense as to why the human population would judge them any more than they would judge a person with autism. Modern day views on serial killers have been produced from the world's lack of knowledge within the psychology field from the start. Before people were given the correct information as to why serial killers killed people it was assumed that they were simply horrid people who must be killed. Now more is known about the psychological issues serial killers experience which causes them to pursue certain actions allowing for their reasoning to be somewhat understood by all. Serial killer Pedro López, although, had a different and more disturbed childhood than most serial killers which is thought to have lead to his type of crime. Like most "normal" people Pedro López was unable to forget the past of revise it in any way. The trauma Pedro López faced as a child caused psychological issues upon him, beginning…
