On the contrary, Robert Frost, in his poem “Choose Something…

Wieland is a story replete with insecurity and confusion as Clara, a self-admittedly unreliable narrator, recounts her brother’s murder of his family.

at the painting it is clear to see that the man is seated at a table with his elbows rested on the surface. His two frail hands are folded together and pressed against his forehead, as if he is bowing his head in prayer. Placed on the table in front of him is a loaf of bread with one end cut off, a bowl containing liquid of brown color, a knife which is right next to the bowl, a thick bible with a green cover, and laying on top of the bible is a pair of glasses folded, laying upside down. The…

In the majority of Fish Tank the…
