    Lynda Barry shares a memory in the narrative essay “The Sanctuary of School” (New York Times 2 Jan. 1992). Ms. Barry recalls her unstable home life as a child and how a school became a sanctuary for the 7-year old. In it, Barry details a walk to school and uses the people she encounters along the way to define her sanctuary.

Lynda Barry’s home life has led her to feel “neglected” and “unnoticed” (Barry 10) Following another night of her parents arguing, Lynda Barry “snuck” (1) out of her home to go to school, in a panic, and in the dark−to avoid…

Some may say that art is vital for catharsis or taste or simply entertainment. One of the most accepted answers is for art to provide a perspective that most individuals do not get to witness in their daily lives. Art can introduce people to a whole new world that they didn’t understand before or find comfort for individuals who think they are alone in this world.
