![]() ![]() ![]() Once Rhys establishes the difference between Antoinette and the black community, she then goes about demonstrating the difference between Antoinette and the white English through the use of the wedding that Rhys describes soon after her argument with Tia. This also reminds us how much of an influence the adult world has on children. Rhys' use of such vulgar language further emphasizes the cultural and racial differences between the two characters. ![]() Money interrupts their supposed blossoming friendship and results in Antoinette calling Tia a "cheating nigger". Antoinette's lack of a cultural identity is clearly emphasized by her relationship with Tia whom she struggles to relate to especially on the themes of money, as both girls have lived very different economic lives. The road could perhaps be symbolic of the interaction between Creoles and the local black population, which is now non-existent. Rhys is stressing how the Act had affected the life of the Creoles as “road repairing was now a thing of the past”. This is a metaphor for the loneliness of Coulibri and the degradation that the area is under after the Emancipation Act of 1833. The Coulibri estate is the epitome of isolation with the road between them and the Spanish town is described as “very bad”. Isolation is a key theme in wide Sargasso, and Rhys uses setting to allude to this. ![]() ![]() ![]() I remember reading the book to myself over and over when I was a couple of years older and able to read it on my own - I hadn't outgrown Amy and Clarissa at all. ![]() A parent reading to their child, however, will love every single word, understand an additional six dozen ways the book is delightfully funny, and be thrilled at how much their child is learning and how much more curious and engaged he or she is becoming both with books and with his or her own imagination. ![]() Christoper Robin is 3-5 in the Pooh books while Amy and Clarissa are 6 in this book, and in both cases there's no way a child of the protagonist's age would actually be able to read the book to him or herself. ![]() It has many of the same qualities as Winnie the Pooh and The House at Pooh Corner - young children who live out tremendous adventures in their imagination with characters who are typically treated by the author as though they are also real, though every once in a while perspective shifts and you see the drawings of Old Witch, Little Witch Girl, Lurie (the little mermaid), Weeny Witchy, Malechai (The Spelling Bee - yes, he is an enchanted bee who spells everything he says) and the others, the same way the illustrations occasionally show you the animals in Winnie the Pooh as stuffed animals.Īnother similarity is in the witty sophistication of the language. ![]() ![]() ![]() In my Bible study and DVD teaching, I try to make room for God to carve these truths deeper into your soul until you grow in your faith. But my dearest hope is that by the last page, you are closer to God, and closer to your true self. You may find love stories that capture your imagination. In my novels, you will find laughter and tears. I write books that try to capture these truths. He has set His affections on you and desires to heal your heart, forgive your failures, and renew your hope. He considers you His treasure and calls you His beloved. Whether writing novels or non-fiction, I try to help my readers internalize these truths. Now, He wants to restore you to your true self and fulfill your destiny. That is why Jesus is lovingly pursuing you. You were made to belong, not to be abandoned. This is part of your original design according to Scripture. ![]() A universe without you is just not a good enough universe. I want to remind you of a few truths, in case they have grown dim in your heart. But let’s start with something really important. ![]() ![]() ![]() In many ways life at Gormenghast is as complex as the Versailles of Louis XIV. The castle is almost a living entity, gaining it’s life force from the host of other characters who live within. The influence of this structure over the other characters is malevolent yet at the same time weirdly paternal. The hero of Titus Groan has to be the huge, overgrown and, it seems, largely derelict castle of Gormengast. ![]() An inanimate hero made of stone and shadows, grandeur and desolation. Despite a number of characters who perform an intricate ballet throughout the book, their stories entwining and creating a strangely complex but clear pattern, there is but one hero. Titus Groan is born at the start of the book named after him, and it would be easy to assume that he is the hero of the piece. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And every time Dad reads it, he’ll think of you.Ralph Lane is the king of comedy, and you’ll love his collection of the very best dad jokes from the past forty years.

Thus, for the love of God, we pray you, Sire, to be consoled and to put yourself in His hands, for, as you know so well, that is what He wants of you to do otherwise would be to injure yourself and hurt us, too, because we lament grievously when we hear that you are burdened and troubled, as we have no other source of goodness in this world but you. And while I tell you that we share deeply in your grief, you would do well to draw even greater comfort from contemplating the general state of human misery, since we are all of us here on Earth like strangers and wayfarers, who soon will be bound for our true homeland in Heaven, where there is perfect happiness, and where we must hope that your sister's blessed soul has already gone. ![]() We are terribly saddened by the death of your cherished sister, our dear aunt but our sorrow at losing her is as nothing compared to our concern for your sake, because your suffering will be all the greater, Sire, as truly you have no one else left in your world, now that she, who could not have been more precious to you, has departed, and therefore we can only imagine how you sustain the severity of such a sudden and completely unexpected blow. ![]() ![]() Your book purchases support this web site. ![]() Goble's usual respect, clear writing, and gorgeous illustrations.
