Comparison: "The Jade Peony", "Horses Of The Night", Masque Of The Red Death"

.... of the sentences, some sentences were too long while others were very short. The only way to truly fix this story would be to re-write it.

.... and follow other people's manners and grace. Holden didn't like phonies, he thought of them as if they were trying to show off.

"Here is Agamemnon, my husband made a corpse by this right hand—a m .....

Mother 2
Number of words: 892 - Number of pages: 4

.... of Mother" she puts mother in quotes to tell us that it was just a title, not a person. "Father", who symbolize her own father, is presented as an unaffectionate father and husband who saw her wife "as immovable to him as one of the rocks in his pasture-land, bound to the earth with generations of blackberry vines (244)."

She was not his dear wife whom he adored and loved. "Mother" was the person wh .....
