Graveyard

imagery to describe some of the locations in “The Destructors,” such as, “The loo stood like a tomb in a neglected graveyard” (Greene, 7).

“The Farmer among the Tombs” by Wendell Berry presents a surface level call to action in utilizing the space taken up by graveyards, affecting the audience in a powerful way; however, when read closely this poem shows its other side, a side contained in Berry’s nuanced hints that draw the reader to a deeper conclusion.

the Western Front creates lasting, jarring scenes that stick in the reader’s mind. To me, three specific scenes have stayed with me after completing the book. In chapter four, there is a battle in a graveyard. The battle begins in a field, but the soldiers are then forced to take cover in the graveyard; Paul even has to cover himself with an unearthed coffin.
