What is the main idea for the story "the writing on the wall" by camille dungy

English
1 answer:
Vsevolod [243]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

“The air on the is by turns foggy and cool and salty and warm. There are moss roses and fragrant stands of eucalyptus. You might call it beautiful, but you are a detainee, not a vacationer, and you are very far from any place that you could call home.” This quote from the story, The Writing on the Wall, helps develop the central idea of the story by explaining how the outside of America seemed inviting and perfect but on the inside, it is crucial and lonely. Immigrants were “detainees” and it would be a hard adjustment. I can see how immigrants would turn to poetry to release their emotions.

A conflict in literature is defined as any struggle between opposing forces. Usually, the main character struggles against some other force. This type ofconflict is what drives each and every story. Without it, the story would have no point or purpose.
an internal conflict would be man vs. self meaning someone is struggling with an internal idea or thought
external could be man vs nature, man vs society, man vs man etc. these are all people vs outside forces
this is the first piece, i will add more once i have poems and stories to choose from

Write a descriptive essay about my best subject​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Most would say, your best subject is probably one you excel at. I, on the other hand, believe that the best subject is one that interests you and you don't need an incentive of a good grade to start the initiative. Therefore, my favorite subject is history. Although many would say it's boring and you don't need it, I find it interesting how people back then lived their day to day lives. In conclusion, history, in my opinion, is my best subject.

Explanation:

Don't worry I did this in my own words ;) also I don't really like history.
