    I believe that the symbolism of the fence in “Araby” stands for the division that the boy faces in the aspect of reality vs. illusion. In Araby, the boy cannot obtain the affection of Mangan’s sister, therefore, the fence can symbolize this idea that “what the boy dreams” of versus “what is actually occurring” cannot and will not happen due to the unobtainable status and obstacles that are in his way.

    • 10 Pages

    There’s so many wonderful characters throughout the Harry Potter series, so choosing one was a little difficult. After some thought, I decided that Neville Longbottom would be a great character to write this over. I chose Neville because I feel that I relate to him in several ways. Sometimes I’m just as clumsy as he is and definitely just as lost, but I manage to put forth a lot of effort into whatever it is that I’m doing. I always liked the fact that Neville seemed to be much braver than he…
