The New York Trilogy

The New York Trilogy by Paul Auster is a page-turner to say the least. The surprising ride Auster delivered covers a range of literary and critical topics. I expected it to more or less follow the expectable twists, turns, and general direction of the genre I believed it to take part in. What I got was something different.

John Wade makes a similar mistake in attempting to reinvent his life and discard his previous identity. The narrator reveals the consequences of his incessant dedication to ridding himself of his past with the acknowledgement that Wade “tried to pull off a trick that couldn't be…

music in the background was playing had me intrigued and kept me staying for more. It was an eerie, spooky, dark melody. One that just pierces my ears at the second my ears make contact with the sound. A song where I know something is going to happen at any given moment so I can’t look away. That’s what it was like. The film starts off showing an absolutely beautiful almost Victorian home. Two quarter moon windows that peaked out like eyes and two more windows right below each. There white…

in 2013 but as an entirely different organization. Since emerging from bankruptcy, the company has mostly served niche film markets (Hardy, 2015). Kodak reappeared on the public markets in September 2013, though the bulk of the company is still owned by private equity and investment firms. Kodak is now a commercial imaging company serving business markets like packaging and graphics (Kodak, Smaller and Redirected, 2013).

Once Jenny got her coffee she waited for her brother. Ten minutes behind, as usual. Jenny was people watching, as she does in the city, when an old stagecoach showed up. The red color of it surprised Jenny, the wooden wheels creaking as it stopped. The driver pet the two horses carrying it and waited for the passenger to get out. They must be doing tours of the city in the coaches now, interesting. Jenny thought. Caught up in her thoughts, she forgot about her coffee. She took a sip, her tongue…

BC 290 Vacation Essay It’s been 4 years since I left the city of Cambridge to go on vacation to Mississauga Canada to visit my grandmother and family. Since then I’ve been working throughout the summers and the rest of the year so I haven’t had time to go on a vacation. Nevertheless, I did have an interesting vacation experience a few years back that I’ll remember forever. It was the winter of 2013 and fellow classmates and I from Middlesex Community College climbed Mount Monadnock in New…

Even though I had gotten a cab, I didn’t want to waste Phoebe’s Christmas dough like that. I love her so goddam much, it kills me. So that’s why I was here walking the rest of the way. Fresh air is always good for clearing my head, so it wasn’t too bad. I changed my route just a bit so I could walk through the park. It always gives me this sense of comfort. It just reminds me of the times I actually had fun. I thought about what Phoebe said, how I don’t even like anything a goddam lot. She sort…
