Summer Reading Comparison Essay People tend to have a natural tendency to think back to their childhood and reminisce over the lighthearted moments of naive innocence, the security of not having to worry, and the flustered experience of having to grow out of it. It is expected that in order to become an adult, childhood should only be this temporary manifestation of nostalgic happiness where adolescents must then be stripped of their identity and sense of blissful charm. This idea of coming to age is one of the fundamental themes that both novels, Rule of the Bone, by Russell Banks, and Huckleberry Finn, by Mark Twain, ponders over. In the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Twain brings to life a thrill-seeking, objective child, Huck, who captivates readers with his charm, while Banks takes his novels in a more dark and depressing tone with a more melancholic protagonist, Chappie, in Rule of the Bones.…

Neil Postman was a Communications Professor at New York University, and author of the book “Amusing Ourselves to Death”. In this book, he creates a continuous argument about discourse in his time, explaining how different mediums, such as television, create a dialogue to show how we are brainwashed into believing the media because we do not register the content being broadcasted. In this paper, I am going to argue that the Netflix original, To the Bone, by Marti Noxon, was a serious attempt at being an informative and educational movie about eating disorders, but ended up being blanketed in layers of superficial discourse. Postman says that television, one of the more well-spoken of mediums, is a “beautiful spectacle” (86) because it is endless…
