A book worth reading
A year ago I managed to find time to read an extremely profound book entitled The Fault in Our Stars . This tragic, yet realistic drama was written by John Green , a famous author of young- adult fiction, and it provides a valuable insight into the life of children fighting with cancer .
The Fault in Our Stars is about a teenage girl Hazel , who has stage 4 thyroid cancer. Hazel’s daily routine contains taking meds, reading books and taking part of the support group meetings for cancer-fighters. In the support group she meets an extraordinarily handsome boy Augustus, who, full of metaphores and mystery , catches Hazel’s attention immediately. As the plot evolves, these two spectacularily appalling figures get close and share unique experiences . Together they help out a friend dealing with the loss of a girlfriend, travel to the Netherlands to meet Hazel’s favourite author and much more. Unlike any other teenage-cliche movie it has a tragic, tearful ending , that makes a reader realize and value the existance of her or his own loved ones in life.
What author John Green has managed to achieve is the realistic description of heroic cancer figthers with all the ups and downs of a teenage person . The book is full of witty humor, heartbreaking happenings, making a reader laugh, cry and smile again within only 313 pages. I thoroughly recommend this book!

Geography of the novel extends from east coast to west coast. It is also international because part of it takes place in france. Organization of LEIVA??, industrial interest, war and ??, art, expluatation, standardisation, dehumanistaion, degradation of ethical and cultural values. He is fascinated with outcasts, the alienated, the outsiders, people who have been beated with life, the descenters-those who don't agree with the majority are the descenters, they are interested in those people. The book follows the lives of nine characters. All aspects of the lives are represented to us, the rich are corrupt, the poor may be not so corrupt, decent, but they can accomplish nothing because they are poor. The unjust triumph and the whole trilogy ends with a memorable sketch of a young harmless hitchhiker who wants to catch a car on a highway that leads nowhere. The final scene is the big indictment-critisism of america, road to nowhere. It is one of the experimental novels

Philip Larkin’s Poetry: Themes, Form, Style, Imagery and Symbolism

the style he used to use, to get in to a second part in which I will assess the way he presents and expresses his ideas. 1.CHAPTER I 1.1. LARKIN STUDIES POINTS OF VIEW: BIOGRAPHY AND POETRY In the collection of essays edited by Stephen Regan (Philip Larkin, 1997) we can find some underlying question as: are we discussing the poem or the poet? Or, in Larkin’s terms: are we more deceived or less deceived by the metonymy of the phrase “we are reading Larkin”? The main purpose of the volume may be discussing and assessing Larkin’s poetry, but there are at least as many references to his letters (mainly published in SL) and to his life as to the poems themselves. If we think that Larkin is known as a legend we shouldn’t be surprised about the importance his life takes as a part of his work. His work, balancing on the borderline between “Life” and “Art”, will probably always is interesting not only for critics, but

the general character of a new American people. Yet while Crevecoeur echoed Jefferson, Thomas's agrarian ideals, his letters also acknowledged the realities of frontier savagery and southern slavery. After taking a post as a French consul in 1783, Crevecoeur published little in English, though he did publish a French revision of Letters (1787) and a final book on his American experiences: Voyage dans la Haute Pensylvanie et dans l'état de NewYork (1801). Letters from an American Farmer is an excellent example of how a New World American thinks about the many changes occurring and that have occurred during the era of Enlightenment. Crevecoeur's essay is an enlightened perspective that shows how the people of that time are feeling about being a part of the new world and its current workings

Robert Herrick was another famous poet of the time. His most famous work is a book of poems called Hesperides. The beginning of this book of poems expressed clear defiance regarding the execution of the king that year. Cowley was a well-known poet of the time, whose works gathered a lot of popularity during his lifetime. (Coursebook, pp. 38-48) 6. The Caroline "beauty of holiness". The Caroline “beauty of holiness” regarded the profoundness of Caroline piety and its beauty. In the context of the Caroline era, the sermon was perhaps comparable to the theatre, in terms of the attention it received from the public
