Khedairi/Sky So Close
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page essay that discusses the major themes and writing style of Iraqi novelist Betool Khedairi in her novel Sky So Close. In everyday life, most people do not generally consider the impact of the political on their lives. However, for the Iraqi girl who is the protagonist of Betool Khedairi's coming-of-age story A Sky So Close, the political is an omnipresent factor that impacts her life on numerous levels. For example, a prominent theme in the novel is the tension between the young protagonist's Iraqi father and British mother, which mirrors the conflict between her Iraqi homeland and the West. As this primary conflict suggests there is much in this novel that is metaphorical, so that the author is able to convey meaning on multiple levels. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Kincaid's Lucy in the Heat of Despair
[ send me this paper ]
In the process of self-actualization, Erickson would say, every girl has to overcome her upbringing to become an individual. Jamaica Kincaid’s character Lucy makes the break dramatic beyond typical rebellion. Lucy suffers anarchy against the role of woman in society, and in particular, the expected role of mother. Because Lucy must leave behind this traditional role, she uses hate for her mother to prevent a return to or desire for traditional roles so that she has the chance to change and grow individually outside of constraints suffered by women. 1 work cited. jvKinLuc.rtf
