family members, going to a new school and lastly making new friends. I remember the day my mom told my sisters, brother and me that my dad was going to visit us because he had a surprise for us. I was so ecstatic that I have seen him after three months that he was working in California. That afternoon, my father arrived and he told us that he needed us to listen…

Romeo and Juliet, Much Ado about Nothing, and Measure for Measure, feature prominent Franciscan characters. Shakespeare portrays these characters as helpful and concerned characters which was not typical of the ways Franciscans were portrayed in English literature of the same time period.

she is now, in the beginning of the essay, she introduces herself with the language she acquired while attending Cambridge University. However, Zadie feels like she lost the voice from her childhood spent in the working-class of London. Hello. This voice I speak with these days, this English voice with its rounded vowels and consonants in more or less the right place—this is not the voice of my childhood.
