Strength of God

That was an utterly strange story for me. The main character is a pastor of a Presbyterian chapel. He has got a wife, he loves her a lot. But something goes wrong in their marriage, because this marriage soon becomes equal for him with his job. That is not usual at all; for somebody to love a partner so much, love and job should not be mixed up so much. One day this guy went for a walk, and he saw a girl in a building. He broke the window to see that girl. That was the point when he thought he saw God. In my opinion this man made a big mistake when he got married with his wife, because he never loved her as much as he should have. Maybe he just loved her money or something like that. The other morale of the story is that it is no good if a man marries the woman he first makes love to in his life.
Hills Like White Elephants

My favorite writer is Ernest Hemingway, because he writes his works very simple. This is good every people to understand it easily. We found a couple in this text. They are wanted to move some where. We do not know why and where. The girl said something about a operation and thi is the reason. Maybe she is pregnant and she does not want the child. Hemingway plays with the colors in the reading. The white color Is symbolize the hospital. The brown color is the ground. The couple is talks about something, but it is hard to understand because they do not want say anything.

The yellow wallpaper

That was a very strange story about a woman who was living in a house with her husband and her sister in law and her baby. She was ill, but she didn’t think that. Her husband was a doctor that was a big problem, because this man tried to safe his wife from everything. At the beginning of the story the woman loves him a lot, but this love turns to hatred. I don’t think that house was a clinic or something, because in a normal house the owners don’t fix the bed to the floor. This woman had a lot of psychological problems after the pregnant session. The writer tried to show the women’s life in the 19’s century. In those times women did not have any rights or something. This story shows that. John, the woman’s husband, “chained” his wife to their house. This girl’s only happiness is the writing her diary and the wallpaper on the wall. She saw a woman on the wall. That woman was her free self. In the first period she wants to leave this house but later she doesn’t want to move anywhere. Maybe she loved that place. I don’t think so. She does not want to fight with her husband. I think she got bored with that and her life too.
„The Law of Life”

I liked the story. It was rather strange for me because it is hard to understand how other civilizations and other cultures think. It’s a very sad story about life and relationship. The old Indian’s place in the text is not easy. He was a tired old man. Nobody misses him, which is said. His son leaves him alone in the forest in winter. He doesn’t want to die, but he must. I found a lot of symbolic pictures in the text. For example: the winter is equal with death and the other thing is he compares his self with an old buck. He tried to remember a hunting where the wolves captured an old buck. Here the old man was that buck. He couldn’t win that fight with the wolves. He tried but he lost.
An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge

I liked the story, because I found it interesting. I can understand the leader actor’s aspect. Why did he want to blow up the bridge? He was a real southern guy with traditions; he had fears about the junkies. If they were to get to his territory, maybe, they would kill all his family and they would even take his area too. Ok it was not a good idea to try to blow up the bridge alone. But sometimes one man wins the war, maybe he thought that. I think he did not want to be a hero, he just tried to protect what belonged to him.

Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl

In my opinion this story was not strange at all. The text is spoken about a general case, which did not seem to be a problem in those years. I think the girl who was a slave was a clever girl, she wanted to be free and she did everything she could to achieve her goal. She imagined that she was pregnant. She thought if she told her master about it, he would do anything for her. She made a lot of mistakes, though. She told her problem to his grandmother too, who set her away. I don’t like the story because that was a bit too boring to me. I couldn’t quite understand the leading actress’ problems.

Spanish Gp beforehand

The Spanish Gp is the next race of the season. This place is good for the Renault team. They have got Fernando Alonso and Nelsino Piquet. The leading pilot is Alonso he won twice the Formula 1 championship. The second pilot is Nelsino. His father used to race in the F1 in the 1970’s and 1980’s. He won three times the Formula 1 championship. The head of the team, Mr. Briatore is rather optimistic about this race because this track might be taken as the second home circuit of the Renault Team. This is sure to be an interesting race.
