Hounds Of The Baskervilles
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 702.... insists that he is not go to Baskerville Hall alone, so Holmes sends Watson to Devonshire with Sir Henry. As I read through the first 7 or 8 chapters of this Sherlock Holmes mystery, I noticed how well Sir Arthur Conan Doyle can describe the characters as well as the scenery in a few short paragraphs. He also introduced the plot of the story in the first paragraph. As I read on I realized how much I enjoyed this book. Im a fan of mystery books and that is most likely the reason I could stick with the book so well. At times though I felt that Doyle rambled on too much on one .....

Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1109.... was named after him was. The
left side of this painting shows the kneeling Narcissus, outlined by the craggy
rocks of what could only be Cape Creus's. On the right side of the painting, the
scene has morphed into a more idyllic and classical scene, in which the

which emerges The Narcissus flower.
This painting reminded me of the first chapter of Metamorphosis, where
the main character, Gregor Samsa, first realizes that he is confronted with a
ludicrous fate in the form of a gigantic insect. In .....

Big Two-Hearted River - Part I
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1188.... in the first person, there is just one instance in In Our Time in which a character speaks in the first person. It occurs in "Big Two-Hearted River: Part II", an intensely personal story which completely immerses the reader in the actions and thoughts of Nick Adams. Hemingway's utilization of the omniscient third person narrator allows the reader to visualize all of Nick's actions and surroundings, which would have been much more difficult to accomplish using first person narration. Nick is seen setting up his camp in "Big Two-Hearted River: Part I" in intimate detail, f .....

Because Mrs. Peebles was always having her nap. I would get my kitchen cleaned and then go up to the mail box and sit in the grass, waiting.” In those few sentences we can figure out that she was very eager to .....

Allegory In Young Goodman Brown
Number of pages: 9 | Number of words: 2425.... of this promise that he made to himself. There is a tremendous irony to this promise because when Goodman Brown comes back at dawn; he can no longer look at his wife with the same faith he had before.
When Goodman Brown finally meets with the Devil, he declares that the reason he was late was because "Faith kept me back awhile." This statement has a double meaning because his wife physically prevented him from being on time for his meeting with the devil, but his faith to God psychologically delayed his meeting with the devil.
The Devil had with him a staff that "bore the .....

a-tetes” with her closest friends. Then she is awakened, only to realize that
