What makes the ending of “The Interlopers” surprising is the last word “wolves”, because the author makes this story with irony. The author does prepare me for the ending by having the story say “Are they your men?” asked Georg, “are they your men” he repeated impatiently, as Ulrich did not answer. “No” said Ulrich with a laugh, the idiotic chattering laugh of a man unstrung with hideous fear. “Who are they” asked Georg quickly, straining his eyes to see what the other would gladly not have seen…

Wolves are approaching Georg and Ulrich. They are scared to death because the wolves are near them, because Georg does not move and Ulrich can not see he has his eyes full of blood, but they have rifles in their hands; however, the problem is that both are very hurt and only Georg can see why Ulrich can not move. Ulrich, desperate to survive, tries to free himself from the tree. He began begging Georg for help moving the tree, “Georg, help me, help me!!!” The Wolves, hungry for Georg’s blood,…

Saki’s novella, “The Interlopers”, explores the intricacies of friendship and rivalry. The story takes place in a European forest one night during the winter. The setting of the story is analogous to the plot; the trees have to bind together for warmth to brave the fierce winter, the same way Ulrich and George have to work together to survive. The exposition does a wonderful job of building suspense by telling of the feud between the two families. The feeling of impending doom increases as…

In the beginning of the two texts “A Poison Tree” by William Blake and “The Interlopers” by Saki, the main characters chose to ignore their anger rather than deal with it in a healthy manner. In “The Interlopers” the two main characters Ulrich and Georg have an enemy like relationship because of a long family feud due to Georg’s family poaching on Ulrich’s land. These two have never had an actual conversation about the feud and how to resolve it “the feud might, perhaps, have died down or been…

The theme in Saki’s, “The Interlopers” is better than Dahl’s, “The Lamb to Slaughter” because the theme is easier to understand. In the story “ The Interlopers” both characters start off the story with a very deep hatred for each other and this is very obvious. Saki says, “ The neighbor feud had grown into a personal one since Ulrich had come to be the head of the family; if there was a man whom he detested or wished ill to it was Georg Znaeym ( Saki 1)”. These two men have had a big family…

“The Interlopers” is a story about two men, Ulrich von Gradwitz and Georg Znaeym, whose feelings for each other change during the story. At the beginning of the story Ulrich and Georg hate each other, but during the story they learn that sometimes it’s good to let go of the past. This shows that the men were letting the past influence their opinions of each other, and the fact that they change so dramatically during the story is surprising. This story is a also a good example of irony. The theme…

Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has been educated in special schools, excluded from their non-disabled peers. It is only in the last few years that this has started to change as more children with special needs are increasingly being given the right to a mainstream education. Parents of these children now have the choice about whether they want their child to attend a mainstream school, or a special needs school. Some people argue that special needs schools are the best places for children with severe…

I grew up in a small church, where my mom was a Sunday school teacher and my dad was the Assistant Pastor. They also were involved in the youth a lot. Growing up, I can remember driving down the road on our way to church and seeing kids that knew or my mom knew and we would ask them if they wanted to go to church with us. Next thing you knew, we have like 5-6 local kids going to church with us. I can remember when we use to ask them where they lived so we could make sure that it was alright with…
