Nora's decision at the end was not the right decision but the way Torvald treated her was not good either. Nora's character was childish yes, but alsoNora's decision at the end was not the right decision but the way Torvald treated her was not good either. Nora's character was childish yes, but also when the times came to make important decisions she did act intelligently. Like: getting a loan to save her husband, when she had no choice but to forge the signature of her father. She had sense of legal stuffs although she had committed a crime of faking the loan but she was also paying the loan until Krogstad started to black mail her. Torvald when came to know about the loan he shouted at her like she had killed someone and he was already yelling her to pack her things and get away from his and the kids' life. Nora selfishly sacrificed her kids and husband for freedom and to live the life she wants to live. This play brought modernism in a way to that era. Ibsen's work is great. I hope to read more of his work....more

Lydia is dead. But they don’t know this yet . . .
In this book it’s not important to find how Lydia ended up dead in the lake, was it suicide or a murder. The important thing in this book was why she died. Each family member never said what they felt to each other, therefore the title of the book. While reading I felt a sympathy and understanding towards the family somehow. I felt bad for Lydia because her parents James and Marilyn imposed their dreams on their daughter, in the hopes that they could live or at least watch their dream becoming a reality. I felt bad for Hannah because it seemed like she was ignored, Lydia being their favorite child. Because they expected too much from their second child that they ignored their third child who wanted and craved for their love. It is really important that parents love all their children, alone one. James thought Nath would be the popular one but when he did not, he started thinking Lydia would and then left Nath to what he did. Marilyn also thought her daughter Lydia would become a doctor instead of herself, so she forced her to study all the time. Hannah was left behind in thoughts that she wasn't important to her parents. Kids want love from both their parents and if they don't get it from them they seek love from others.
Lee family being a Chinese and the fact of mixed-marriage also played a very important role. I believe because the story was set in the 1970s mixed-marriages and oriental students were frowned, teased and bullied. This too made the Lee family very difficult to breathe. In this book, the mystery of her death reveals a lot about the family and how they lived, what they went through and how much pressure was on the kids. All around, this book was very interesting and I would read it a second time.
This is my analysis of this story from the psychological aspect which I had to write for my paper at school. So thought of posting it here too. Tell mThis is my analysis of this story from the psychological aspect which I had to write for my paper at school. So thought of posting it here too. Tell me what you think.
Every story has to have a psychological aspect to make the story reasonable or it does not make any sense. In Faulkner’s short story ‘A Rose for Emily’, it reveals that Emily comes from an aristocratic family and because she was like a symbol of heritage her father restricted her to date any man in town. Due to the repressive father’s rejection of all her suitors she withdrew herself physically and mentally from the present world. She creates a cocoon for herself in which life and death becomes a continuum for her until she dies. Thus, we can conclude that her fear of intimacy rises due to her father’s intervention. After her father died, though he left her nothing but the house, yet she loved her father so she hides his dead body and refuses to believe that he is dead. Thus, here it shows that she was in trauma of losing her only parent and only source of love she ever got.
Due to the restrictions of dating from her father Emily did not get love or a suitor for herself, this made her anxious of finding love, but because of her awkward and unusual behavior she could not bring herself out much. Whenever she used to go out of her house even though she was broken and all the towns’ people knew and pitied her, she held her head high in fake pride of her symbolic aristocrat reputation. When Emily met Homer Barron (who was into men and was not marrying type), and after the situation with her family relations in Alabama and the entire secret marriage situation she finally marries Homer. Which is unclear because there was no declaration that they were actually married or not but Homer disappeared after that day. So because she did not want to lose the love again like she lost her father, she kills Homer and sleeps with his corpse on the top floor of her house for several years until she died. Here Emily had necrophilia which is having relationship with the death.
This story made me think a lot. I wish Faulkner would have written a short story from Emily’s point of view. I would like to read what she went through not what others thought that happened.

It was an entertaining book. The plot and characters and the details of the location was so beautifully written. I want to visit Alaska for this book makes it sound so wonderful. I loved that this book mainly brought Nate Burke to light as the man with a sad back story, the outsider, the handsome hunk, a chief, a hero maybe every town needs. I loved Meg for she was a brave and courageous women. Charlene's character was a doll.The killer was unexpected for me, thought it would be Jacob but it's some one else. Good mystery, I would say.

This book contains hot and intense scenes and mind aching suspense (More intense scene than suspense though). It has a prologue and an epilogue which makes it a full and complete book to enjoy.
He is an Illusionist, a Mentalist, and pretty good Trickster.
"Never out-trick a trickster." And this trickster is a huge hot air balloon.
Don't go finding how he did the Magic Trick. “So why not live with the magic? Be a kid again and believe in the fantastical. Life is more fun with a little smoke and mirrors.” ...more
