Fahrenheit 451
Number of words: 539 - Number of pages: 2.... Without their own king Scotland would just be a meaningless province that is guarded by soldiers at all times. Why should you live in constant fear when you can have freedom and live in relative peace and you don't have to worry about what you say or do about the English because they have no rule there?
The consequences for all of Wallace's actions led to the deaths of many people, but it also led to freedom. The negatives of the war were starvation, torture, and deaths of your friends and companions. They all fought and many died fighting for freedom and the ones that lived got to enjoy t .....

Dulce Et Decorum Est 3
Number of words: 577 - Number of pages: 3.... so graphic that it could make readers feel sick. For example, in these lines: "If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood/ Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs/ Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud,"(21-23) shows us that so many men were brutally killed during this war. Also, when the gas bomb was dropped, "[s]omeone still yelling out and stumbling/ [a]nd flound'ring like a man in fire or lime.../ [h]e plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning."(11-12,16) These compelling lines indicate that men drowned helplessly in the toxic gasses. These graphic images are very disturbing .....

Hemingway's "In Our Time": Lost Generation
Number of words: 1402 - Number of pages: 6.... to each story.
One could even speculate that In Our Time's main character Nick, is in fact,
Hemingway himself. It seems as though no matter what age this novel is read
at, it could be discussed as a representation of the "lost generation."
What is meant by the phrase "lost generation?" Possibly it means the loss
of a kindlier, friendlier, period of time. Maybe it means a loss of
familiarity, closeness and strength of relationships; everyday things like
the lost art of conversation. But at the same time, the characters in the
stories appear to be part of a "lost generation" themselves. In .....
