Answer:

OD. Heartbreak.

Explanation:

Miss Havisham is one of the major characters in Charles Dickens' novel "Great Expectations". She plasy a pivotal role in the progression of the plot and also acts as a means through which Pip learns about life.

In Chapter XXII, Herbert Pocket told Pip that Estella "<em>has been brought up by Miss Havisham to wreak revenge on all the male sex</em>." This is due to the fact that her guardian Miss Havisham had been jilted by Compeyson on what was supposed to be their wedding day. Holding a grudge on all men, she hates and have a sense of repulsion for every male human. This, according to Herbert, is the main cause for her eccentric behavior.

Read this line from chapter 3 of The Metamorphosis: Was he an animal if music could captivate him so? How does this line reveal
slega [8]

The line from The Metamorphosis shows us that although Gregor has changed into an insect, he still has human thoughts and emotions. He can still think and feel like a human and appreciate the finer things in life, such as music, which would presumably be lost to him if he were solely an animal, especially an insect. So the line shows that although he has physically changed, mentally and emotionally he’s still a human.

Gregor’s role as a son and brother also undergoes a transformation along with his physical transformation. Prior to his transformation, his entire family is dependent on him and his job. However, after his transformation, he becomes dependent on other members of his family for his sustenance and survival. For example, in the initial days after his transformation, Grete feeds him, and he comes to depend on her for nourishment.

Gregor struggles with a number of identity issues in his new form. Although he has been transformed into an insect, he still has human feelings and sensations. However, being an insect, he cannot find a suitable outlet to express his feelings and emotions. The few instances in which he tries to reach out to other people or experience pleasure, as when he wants to hear Grete play the violin, he’s vehemently dismissed because of his repulsive form.

Summary of son of a trickster
liubo4ka [24]

Everyone knows a guy like Jared: the burnout kid in high school who sells weed cookies and has a scary mom who's often wasted and wielding some kind of weapon. Jared does smoke and drink too much, and he does make the best cookies in town, and his mom is a mess, but he's also a kid who has an immense capacity for compassion and an impulse to watch over people more than twice his age, and he can't rely on anyone for consistent love and support, except for his flatulent pit bull, Baby Killer (he calls her Baby)--and now she's dead.  

Jared can't count on his mom to stay sober and stick around to take care of him. He can't rely on his dad to pay the bills and support his new wife and step-daughter. Jared is only sixteen but feels like he is the one who must stabilize his family's life, even look out for his elderly neighbours. But he struggles to keep everything afloat...and sometimes he blacks out. And he puzzles over why his maternal grandmother has never liked him, why she says he's the son of a trickster, that he isn't human. Mind you, ravens speak to him--even when he's not stoned.
