Atonement Monologue

Improved Essays
I want to start off by saying that I am sorry you had that experience and that it has tormented you for so long. I understand how difficult it would be to admit that you were an inactive bystander, but you need to think about putting Harry first. The only way to deal with the guilt is to admit your wrongdoing and to strive for atonement. Otherwise, it will go on eating you from the inside out. If you and Harry decided to enter this contest together then I assume that the two of you were close. After what he has been through, doesn't he deserve to know what you witnessed? After all, he was the vicim. I am sure a traumatic situation such as this really took a toll on him. After that, he could have used a best friend more that ever. Every day

    From the first moment Romiette, Julio, Ben, and Destiny started to create their plan, I knew it would go wrong. The plan, in short, was to send Romi and Julio out as bait to record The Devildogs threatening them. This part of the plan alone sounds dangerous, but it gets worse. As a safety precaution Destiny and Ben would trail behind the couple in a loud, slowly moving car. Since they began talking about the plan, I've been anxious for them, so naturally, this section had me on the edge of my seat.…

    In both Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and Star Wars our protagonists Harry Potter and Luke Skywalker can each be considered a “chosen one” due to their characterizations. Each creator has followed a similar framework that structures their emergence to becoming a chosen one which results in noticeable parallels between the two. Neither of the boys have a comprehensive understanding of their own history, as they are both considered orphans who were raised by extended family, they also are exposed to a new community which allows them to learn new skills, as in the Jedi’s/ The Force and the wizarding world, and finally, they also deal with the situation they are faced with is a similar manner, the conflict presents itself to them and they act out of duty not in search of glory. Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and Star Wars begin with the showing the consumer what life was like for Harry and Luke before they are faced with their respective tasks of saving the world.…

    “Well, I hit on Andover as the first town because it seemed like a quiet and likely spot where an old, frail little lady who owned a shop would be killed. I found Mrs. Ascher when I was in that town for personal business about a few months ago, and I had noticed that she was often in her little shop alone. For letter B, I had to use slightly different tactics. By now, lonely women in shops would have been warned about a killer on the loose, so I had to change the characteristics of my next victim. I often visited tea shops and cafes, where I began to notice girls with names who began with the right letter.…

    “You’ll never leave” is carved faintly into the brick wall of the small jail cell, probably from its last guest. Every day, I started to believe the phrase more and more. I lay on the uncomfortable cot, pretending to be asleep. I’m lonely, but I’m not alone. I can hear him breathing and slowly flipping the pages of the newspaper; I assume it’s…

    It’s been a day or two since we’ve left this room. I’m lost and enraptured by the fragility surrounding our isolation. I spend much of my time counting things. I count the slats on your window blinds, I count the clothes scattered on your bedroom floor, I count the scars on your body. I count every different language and color I could learn to love you in.…

    Louis was almost too fixated to notice that Harry had sat down on his mattress opposite Louis. The green eyed lad just sat there for a moment, every now and again his mouth opening, then shutting again as if trying to spit out the words which were obviously on the tip of his tongue. “Do you want to talk about what happened? I’ve heard that talking through things makes it better, we could try that?”…

These two classifications are best represented by: Paul Marshal and Robbie Turner. Both of these characters are subject to, or display, discriminatory treatment because of their place in the social hierarchy. In Atonement, Ian McEwan utilizes social class in the main characters to demonstrate that class defines individuals by governing their potential opportunities.…
