    “The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.” - Niccolo Machiavelli This quote has a significant meaning towards the question, to what extent is literature like an hourglass. The quote means as time goes by and the sand lessens, the clearer we should start to see things, both literally and metaphorically. This reflects greatly in the two books I read, Funny boy by Shyam Selvadurai and anthem by Ayn Rand. In these two books, I was…

I think the theme of this book is to “appreciate the time you have” and not complain about whether it is too much or too less for your needs.

Firstly, I chose more time to show my theme because people are unsatisfied and do not appreciate the time they are given, instead…
