In the slums of Mumbai, India, in a half acre in the shadows of Mumbai International Airport, resides the city of Annawadi. A poor place, where children wander trash heaps in search of something valuable to sell so that they may have a mouthful of food. Yet, the city is a place of rising hope because of the affluence that is slowly spreading through India. Katherine Boo is a reporter, trying to spread awareness in her book “Behind the Beautiful Forevers” that extreme poverty has not been…

Dostoevsky’s description of the tragic Karamazov brothers and the murder of their father provokes questions about God’s sovereignty, the place of suffering in our world, human depravity, and redemption through pain. The Brothers Karamazov is a long book (almost 800 pages). Pevear and Volokhonsky’s translation is, undoubtedly, the easiest to read in English, but even the good translation cannot overcome some of the slow-moving moments where the novel labors in details. Many Karamazov fans (and I…

“The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street,” by Rod Serling, is both similar and different to the TV episode of the same title which first aired on March 4th, 1960. Both have the same characters, such as Steve, Don, and Charlie, and both take place in a mysterious place called “The Twilight Zone,” on a classic American street in the fifties and sixties.

heraldry symbol or coat of arms might look like. I would like to start with the description of the Sir Gawain character in the Pearl Poet’s poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight , as it is one of the easiest to interpret what Sir Gawain’s armor looks like and what his heraldic symbol is. This poem was written in the late 14th century, which is an important element in why the poet choses certain types of symbols and vivid descriptions of Gawain’s armor. From lines 568-639 the Pearl Poet describes…

from his skull, the same skull that contains yellow rotting teeth, from which drool slips out of. Jem’s description coincides quite well with the stereotypical image of a pyschopathic serial killer. In addition, he apparently has hands permanently stained with the blood of animals, primarily raw squirrels and cats. There are, of course, rumors and/or stories common with a person of such description. Some of that includes the previously mentioned stories, like his involvement with a gang and the…

devastation. Mark Twain and Jack London each wrote an essay on the San Francisco earthquake describing the events that took place during, and after the earthquake; however, they each took a different approach stylistically on writing the essays. Mark Twain’s essay on the San Francisco earthquake was written to be humorous and was more specific in the events that took place. London’s essay was more serious, had a darker tone, and was written to replicate the true darkness of the earthquake.…
