Answer:

At first glance, it may seem that ‘Tokyo Blues‘ is about a typical story in which a teenager is in a love triangle. And to some extent, it's true. But the history of Murakami manages to turn events around and highlight the importance of how they happen. It is a short novel, but not light. I have to admit that at the beginning I had my doubts but I really enjoyed reading.  

Tokyo Blues back cover

Although the premise can be seen, the story is told with tact, sensitivity and rawness at some times. All these elements make it a very special book. The story stars unusual characters. Everyone has some emotional tare and some ghosts of the past. They are caught between nostalgia and monotony.

Death, sex, disease and insecurity are key elements in ‘Tokyo Blues’. They are present in virtually the entire book and continually condition the story. So are music and literature because despite the fact that Murakami is a Japanese writer, he is fascinated by certain Western elements that (from what I have read) he introduces into almost all his works. In this case, jazz or The Beatles (who title the book with "Norwegian Wood"), Truman Capote, Fitzgerald or Raymond Chandler.

How do you think Scrooge changed his life after these experiences with the ghosts? Please write neatly. You may attach additiona
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer and Explanation:

Ebenezer Scrooge is the main character in Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol". Scrooge is a grumpy old man who hates Christmas. He is also greedy and cold-hearted. Scrooge is visited by three ghosts who show him his past, present, and future. Victim of a neglected childhood, if Scrooge does not change his way of treating others, he will end up dying alone.

How do you think Scrooge changed his life after these experiences with the ghosts?

I believe the ghosts helped Scrooge understand the reasons behind his grumpiness. He was neglected by his father as a child, so his aggressive behavior toward others is but a way of protecting himself and his feelings. He is just trying to keep suffering at bay. However justifiable his behavior is, it is keeping people away from Scrooge. He will end up dying alone after driving everyone, even his own family, away.

<u>Now that he is aware of that, Scrooge is likely to be kinder and more patient. Instead of being greedy, he will help others with his money. Instead of being grumpy, he will be joyful. I imagine Scrooge becomes the complete opposite of the person he was at the beginning of the story. He will greet others with a smile, wish them a happy Christmas, invite his family over for dinner, give away presents, etc. For the rest of his life, Scrooge will be surrounded by people.</u>

Which sentence best explains the significance of the novel's title, The Grapes of Wrath? A. Steinbeck lived on a winery of the s
zhannawk [14.2K]

The sentence that best explains the significance of the novel's title,<em> The Grapes of Wrath</em>, is D. Steinbeck describes the migrants' anger as "fermenting".

<em>The Grapes of Wrath </em>(1939) tells the story of the Joads, a poor family of farmers that leave their home in Oklahoma in search for a better life. However, when they reach California, the Joads only encounter starvation and workers that are constantly exploited. The title of the novel is of great relevance since <u>Steinbeck intends to underline the fact that the family's anger ripens very quickly due to the oppression they suffer. </u>Furthermore,<u> by using that title, the writer tries to remark that the family's feelings of frustation are ready to be harvested </u>as the grapes are by the end of the novel. Therefore, the title refers to the Joads' growing anger and the need for revenge against the migrants' oppressors.
