Maybe because no one wants to listen to him or no one thinks he is important?
Adjectives are words that describe other words. They often give details about how something feels or looks. They can also give details about where something comes from (the origin of the thing) or how long something lasts or the length of something.
In the sentence "The American had long standing love for African birds", long and African are adjectives because they are describing other words, specifically the nouns in the sentence.
Long describes the length of the American's love. African describes the origin of the birds since they are from Africa. The other words in the sentence are not adjectives.
Answer:
Les Misérables by Victor Hugo
Explanation:
So this one is fairly different from the other one, it's a book that was originally written in French. It's about a man named Jean who goes to jail for a long time for stealing bread. He later gets out years later, and struggles finding shelter and a job because he used to be in jail. Anyways, he meets a guy who offers him shelter, and Jean later steals his silver to sell it, the man finds out but kind of allows him because he knows he's suffering.
This is all I know so far because I'm not done reading it, (it's a very big book) but I like it so far.
Also the book was written in 1845, it's old, but interesting. :D
