How many teenagers never ask for anything, and always obey their parents? In truth, not many adhere to such behavior. Certain characters in literature follow similar adolescent patterns--we sympathize with Harry Potter’s struggle with his extended family and criticize Dudley Dursley’s selfish behavior. We applaud Oliver Twist when he eventually asks, “Please sir, may I have some more?” In Willa Cather’s short story “Paul’s Case”, she portrays the protagonist, Paul, in a similar light, proving that

The leading characters in “What’s eating Gilbert Grape?” and “I’m not Scared” each confront physical, mental and emotional obstacles which they usually deal with using similar strategies.

In this excerpt from Henry VIII, Shakespeare uses allusion, figurative language, and tone to convey Cardinal Wolsey’s bitterness over being unjustifiably removed from his position at court, his regret for his own pride, and his condemnation of royalty’s abuse of the lower peoples. Wolsey’s speech begins with him saying “farewell to the little good you bear me” to his former friends and life, and this tone and ironic use of the word ‘farewell’ reflects his bitterness over being so unfairly removed

Adrian though a lot about death continued to think of himself as a Christian. He was not afraid of death itself and often recited from Shakespeare’s plays, in this case Julius Caesar; ‘Cowards die many times before their deaths: The valiant never taste of death but once.

“I was a 'young adult' when I wrote 'The Outsiders,' although it was not a genre at the time. It's an interesting time of life to write about, when your ideals get slammed up against reality, and you must compromise.” -S. E. Hinton. The Outsiders was a big deal back in the ‘60s because it started teen-realistic fiction. This book demonstrated heaps of true heroism in many of the characters. A hero, in my opinion, shows responsibility, bravery, and sacrifice. Johnny Cade most suits my definition of

Eric Burdon, an influential songwriter involved in the band “The Animals” once proclaimed: “‘Inside each of us, there is the seed of both good and evil: It's a constant struggle as to which one will win, and one cannot exist without the other”’ (Burdon). Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck, in one of his most ambitious novels, East of Eden, explores this concept through the lives and decisions of regular people in a poor town setting during the 20th century. While many of Steinbeck’s characters fit
