Answer: Though an international clean-up is needed, the solution is not as simple as cleaning laundry.
Explanation:
A paradox is a statement which might seem absurd at first, but turn out to have certain point. In literature, it is often used to make the reader think about a new idea.
In "Homework", Allen Ginsberg conveys the idea that many countries need a clean-up. In fact, he begins the poem by stating that he wants to wash Iran. The message the author wants to express is that there is a state of political and social unrest, which threatens our environment and nature. However, a clean-up is not a solution to this problem, as the situation is not that simple. Through suggesting an international clean-up, the author calls for his readers to pay attention to this problem, and think of a real-life solution to it.
In her book, 'A good man is hard to find', Flannery O'Connor works with different linguistic tools to give the story a sense of dark humor. One of these tools, being the use of irony.
The first appearance of this technique is at the beginning of the book, when O'Connor explains the reason behind her grandmother getting dressed for a car ride. "In case of an accident, anyone seeing the dead on the highway would know at once that she was a lady."
The writer then keeps on building the story line around the judgment that the grandmother holds up to everyone she meets. After the car crash and the Misfit makes his appearance, O'Connor writes: ""Listen," the grandmother almost screamed, "I know you are a good man, you dont look a bit like you have common blood. I know you must come from nice people!.""
The irony in this is that the grandmother believes that she can properly asses people based on how they look or act, at first encounter, when in reality the Misfit is a sociopath that is measuring all of his actions to get what he desires.
