<em>The man with the umbrella</em> in Sorrentino's "There's a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella" <em>conveys to the central themes of the monotony of everyday life and the absurdity of the modern world.</em>

"There's a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella" is a short story written by Fernando Sorrentino that tells the story of a the relationship between the narrator and the man with the umbrella that hits the narrator for 5 consecutive years. The character of the man with the umbrella represents the monotony of everyday life and the absurdity of the modern world as he does the same action, which is in some way a useless action, every day no matter what, for 5 years. He, representing monotony and how the modern world works, shows no emotion and seems to be unaffected by anything that happens around him.

Why are some animals good at living in cold places
slega [8]

Answer:

Animals lose body heat through the surface of the skin. The more surface area an animal has, the more efficiently it loses body heat. Hares and other animals living in cold regions have shorter ears and limbs than their warmer weather counterparts, and many animals have very compact forms to minimize heat loss.
