Addie And Jewel
502 wordsAh, love. Love is so often a theme in many a well-read novel. In the story, As I Lay Dying, one very important underlying theme is not simply love, but the power to love. Some of the characters have this ability; some can only talk about it.

As the Bible would have it, he does "not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth" (1 John 3: 18). Jewel, A...

Love Story Of Mama Day
1,092 wordsThe entire structure of Mama Day is fitting to the telling of multiple love stories enter twined.

Through the book we see them meet, fall in lo...
