Campsite

With the last burlap sack, I gently…

close up scene when Archie is studying the map from the newspaper, in detail, as he decides whether to enlist with the Australian troops. This then transitions quickly into the same map being studied by Frank’s friend Wilkes, at their railway works campsite. This is the first link of the connection between Frank and Archie; it flows in a subtle way and is coincidental, but significant. It is an omen of what their destination will be, their ‘coming of age’ and loss of innocence similar to that of…

(1984:44)” (Culture Sketches pg.647) This quote above shows how these people of Africa stay living in an area for a period of time. Next, with subsistence comes domestication of dogs for…

Literature reflects on human 's nature and pulls at their instinct to be adventurous and go against their comfort zone of a normal life to do something extraordinary. Two examples of pieces of literature that show off people that accept the call to adventure while other folks do…

good, would have been more happy to see the Joads drop off the face of the earth than see them in California.
