.... Game" has also provided for a progression in his style. Evident from the two stories is the contrasted amounts of detail and abstract detail. In some sense, Boyle has mellowed over the two stories by leaving out many of the twists and turns of "" in "Big Game," but in the same sense has become more exciting with more violence and action. The plots in the two stories are similar in structure and pattern of action. They both include violence and regretful lessons learned the hard way, and seam to involve similar events and characters. A definite change in Boyle’s plot over the course of the two stories however, is the loss in significanc .....

.... to be hanged. The second paragraph is given in formal language and gives the reader a detailed insight of the surroundings at the bridge and tells us that soldiers stand ground there. The third paragraph tells us that man is being hanged if we didn’t already gather that from the first paragraph. It tells us more about the civilian and makes us wonder why he is at the bridge about to be hanged. ‘The liberal military code makes provision for hanging many kinds of people, and gentlemen are not excluded.’ However we are also told that this man is a kind-hearted man and he is no vulgar assassin. Now we feel a touch of sympathy for the man, .....

.... a despicable practice. Gatsby's bootlegging business made him millions. The time during Prohibition in the 1920's was a opportune time to take advantage of the lack of alcohol and sell it for those who would pay large sums for it. Organized criminals catered to the needs of the drinking public by illegally supplying them with liquor.

There was something about Ms. Smith that allowed me to put aside my bases about math and for once in my life look at the subject with a more objective approach. My best friend was also in the same math class that I was in but much to my surprise she on the other hand hated math class. Her dislike of math class was solely based on the fact that she didn't like our math t .....

.... years. Many love stories reach their highest point when the two perfect lovers consummate their relationship. However in Arabian Nights the idea of sex many times is used to create conflict or controversy and therefore leading to lies and/or violence.
