The story I'd like to interpret is entitled “The Ice Palace” and it’s written by Francis Scott Fitzgerald. The author is one of the greatest American writers. His books nowadays are as successful as his own life was a failure. He wrote five novels, four volumes of short stories and a selection of his autobiographical pieces. “The Ice Palace” is one of Fitzgerald’s stories.

William Benemann had clear intent when writing his most recent novel, Men in Eden: William Drummond Stewart and Same-sex Desire in the Rocky Mountain Fur Trade. Answering the call of Jim Wilke's Frontiers magazine article suggesting the topic, Benemann set to "restore William Drummond Stewart to his place at the table," (2). Though Benemann doubts any intentional misrepresentation of Stewart's sexual history, he believes that most historians simply did not consider the possibility that he was…

Huck Finn, Cool Hand Luke, and Catcher in the Rye, all have something important that are the same. There are many similar outlines of these three stories. They each state something that has common features in each of the incredibly detailed backgrounds. For example, both Huck Finn and Holden Caulfield take an adventure during the books.
