  • "Perfect Dress" by Marisa de los Santos

    989 Words  | 2 Pages

    Perfect: adj. ˈpər-fikt 1. Entirely without any flaws, defects, or shortcomings, is the first definition you find on dictionary.com for the word (perfect). Is this actually possible to attain? Has anyone actually ever been perfect? Or is it all in the eye of the beholder? These questions are asked by almost every girl, as we dream to one day reach the unattainable. This is especially true at the tender age of fifteen, where nothing seems to be going right with our bodies and everything is changing in us. This poem stresses the fact that as everyone realizes how unrealistic this dream is, the knowledge makes no difference to the wish. Marisa de los Santos comments on this in her poem “Perfect Dress”. The use of verbose imagery, metaphors, and the simplistic approach are very effective in portraying the awkward adolescent stage of a young woman and the unrealistic dream of being perfect.

  • Theme Of Suspense In Cujo

    1505 Words  | 4 Pages

    Mood is how the audience feels about a piece of literature. This differs from tone because tone is the author’s mood about a piece of literature. Suspense and mood are often closely connected because how you feel about a text can help create suspense. If you feel tense or nervous about something that will add to the suspense already there; however, if you feel devastated or depressed about something, it may not add the same amount of suspense as it could’ve if it made you feel tense or nervous. An example of mood in Cujo is when Stephen King wrote, “She saw the dog’s tail and the top of its broad back over the hood of the Pinto. It was going around to Tad’s side of the car -- And Tad’s window wasn’t shut.” The mood of this piece of text evidence is nervous and maybe a little bit scared of what will happen to Tad. The mood in this part of the excerpt adds to the suspense because the suspense of this excerpt is already making you feel anxious, and the mood makes the suspense stronger. Another example of mood in Cujo is when Donna first heard Cujo growl. It had seemed directionless to her. It was nowhere and everywhere at the same time. She finally figured out that it came from the garage. The mood here would be nightmarish and a little nervous. This is because the reader would read the paragraph and think that it was something out of a nightmare, and they would be nervous for Donna because they wouldn’t want her getting hurt. The mood
