In our life, there is always a hero. In The Outsiders Johnny was one person who acted like a hero. Johnny had saved the kids from the burning church and died with the wounds from saving the kids. The Outsiders, Chapter 6, states, “ He (Johnny) wasn’t scared either.

Review Jesus’ Son is a novel written by Denis Johnson. The genre is Fiction. It is 133 pages long and is about 14 dollars. This novel was published in 1992. This book is a novel full of different short stories that make up the chapters. The narrator is an unknown drug user that is just shifting us through different incidents that he has either witnessed or been a part of. There is no exact theme, in my opinion. Each chapter has a different story to tell with one thing in common; the feeling of…

and glanced at the alarm clock. Its bold digital face read… 4:36. I had been tossing and turning all night, I guess it was my own fault for reading horror stories before bed. I flipped the pillow over and tried to go back to sleep. Tap tap tap. It sounded like someone knocking at the door. “Who the hell is out at 4:36 on a Tuesday morning?” I thought to myself as I blindly felt around the nightstand for my glasses.

The ethos of his writing is addressed first thing, through an introduction describing his role in an important debate at a respected convention, that he then tells readers was intriguing enough to his audience at the time to have a demand for him to write down his stance and better clarify…

The arrangement of occurrence’s caught my eye because they follow the same pattern of war; things start out fine, then they get bad, and then there’s death. It’s also important to note that the protagonist, the young boy, was the one who lost his youth and his life, like many young men did in World War I. As previously noted, the date that Robert Frost published this poem is also especially important in making the connection to war in his poem, as it was written in 1916, (right in the middle of…
