I'm not sure how much help it can be, but the following website lists the Faulkner collections that "Wash" is incorporated into.\n\nhttp://www.mcsr.olemiss.edu/~egjbp/faulkner/r_ss_wash.html

First of all, it's Faulkner, not Falkner. This will help you search for his books.\n\nProject Gutenberg (http://www.gutenberg.com) lets people download e-books for free, but the books have to be in public domain.\n\nHowever, Faulkner's estate probably controls all the publishing rights to his books and none seem to be in e-book form as of yet. \n\nMy suggestion is that you order an inexpensive copy of the paperback as the book does not appear to be available in electronic form yet. I provided a link to an excellent edition in paperback that has corrections and is cheap to purchase even with expedited shipping.

Well, the biggest piece of irony in the whole poem is the last line!  The writer spends the entire poem talking about unlikely disasters which cause him/her great anxiety while outside the bunker the sun is shining!  Question being raised here is, do you want to spend your life hiding and worrying about things that may never happen, or would you rather be outside enjoying today in the sun?

The denial of death and getting older...SEE BELOW:\n\nEyeless In Gaza: April 2005\n... A wonderful, wonderful poem. Lying In A Hammock At William ... anything more affected than Kim Addonizio's poem? More cursory and ... This denial of death as death extends to the treatment of old age.

Looks like an interesting series of books by Cate Tiernan.  Had to go to Borders to find it.\n\nFrom reading the excerpts it appears to be sort of a 'diary' of a young teen just coming into her own.  She has a lot of decisions to make and a big revelation to cope with.  I'm hoping the series does not get too 'dark', but hey, life has it's darkness sometimes. If you learn something to help you cope with this world, go for it. "an harm none"  So mote it be. \n\nI am surprised no one has even attempted to answer your question, I'm hoping there are readers out there and not everyone lives on the net!

Jennifer, Will Mayes can be found in "Dry September" by William Faulkner and he's not imprisoned. I'm not acquainted with any other.

There You GO:\n\nI just completed reading the novel, Nightbirds on Nantucket, written by Joan Aiken. It is one of the seven books in the Wolves Chronicles series. The novel features Dido Twite, and her frequent adventures. Of the numerous characters, I chose to focus my attention on Dido and Dutiful, who frequently appeared in the book. Joan Aiken uses a unique personality and style for each character. For example, the way she emphasizes Dutiful’s fear on page 66. When the ship Dutiful is on shakes, she becomes scared and begins to question her safety. The source of Dutiful’s fear of the ocean remains an unanswered question. One theory is that Dutiful’s fear arose because of her late mother’s fears. The genre of Nightbirds on Nantucket is difficult to identify. It seems to be historical fiction because of the language used and clothing styles mentioned. This novel may also be classified under fantasy because of certain animals, a pink whale, and weaponry used, a mile-long gun. I enjoyed reading this book because of the author’s writing style and ideas, which instantly grab the reader’s attention. Everything flowed extremely well; in fact, I felt as if I was on the ship with Dutiful and Dido. The clarity of the details makes me wonder what the author’s inspiration was.\n\n\nDon't forget to underline the title of the novel. You may want to mention more about Dido's characer.

To Kill A Mockingbird?  This is one of the best books ever written.  I seriously suggest reading it.

It's a pretty dark book, in its theme of imprisonment. It's probably a good book to do a report on though because there are a lot of good literary themes and devices. Also it's a classic - go for it.

Well Ness I believe that sundae_mornings is right but know what I can help U! Here is an alliteration.\n\nSally and Samuel saw that Susan was sad. Sally and Samuel said oh my, she seems shocked and sobber. I wish you sister could shine her day said Samuel. Their friend Shay shared their simpathy for poor Susan. Sometime soon they would see Susan smile and shake. So Sally and Samuel with the help of Shay squirmed and sat in the side walk while they found a solution for Susan's sadness. They were seriously worried to see Susan begin to spin. Suddenly a boy in second grade who saw Susan so scared stood next to her shadow and as she began to shout; Sally, Samuel, and Shay spied that Susan was shaking and shrinking in size. Susan then screamed when she spot her friends spying on her. Susan ran so fast past the swings until she got out of the street. Sally, Samuel, and Shay were behind Susan until she stopped in a school and said want to know why my stubborness and sadness? Well Saturday and Sunday night, Sandra my snail died, so as soon as the sun falls I sincerely will sorround her with sand.\n\nOk Ness I have finished my alliteration poem. I hope U like it. If U want U can use it unless U want to make up your own.\n\nGood Luck my friend!

Let's see. I've read quite a bit by her:\n\nIN THE GARDEN - by Emily Dickinson\n \nA bird came down the walk:\nHe did not know I saw;\nHe bit an angle-worm in halves\nAnd ate the fellow, raw.\nAnd then he drank a dew\nFrom a convenient grass,\nAnd then hopped sidewise to the wall\nTo let a beetle pass.\nHe glanced with rapid eyes\nThat hurried all abroad, --\nThey looked like frightened beads, I thought;\nHe stirred his velvet head\nLike one in danger; cautious,\nI offered him a crumb,\nAnd he unrolled his feathers\nAnd rowed him softer home\nThan oars divide the ocean,\nToo silver for a seam,\nOr butterflies, off banks of noon,\nLeap, plashless, as they swim.\n\n\nWhat does it mean-\n A gentle observation of a natural moment of Nature pedantic -hmmm, did I spell that right? Many poets professed that to observe Nature is to continually learn profound lessons, and sometimes lessons that simmer over decades before their truths be known. Miss Dickinson recorded life & elements swimming about her in her two story house in Amherst, in her garden, in her heart, her head, her grand and simple analogies abounding. Perhaps the bird was a bird. Perhaps he simply was going about his regular business. Or, perhaps she wanted future readers to consider the bird a symbol of all who toil in their daily labors, of all striving to meet their goals (courageously surmounting any obstacle; a beetle), then encountering a collision with an outside force - life, death, circumstance that "offers a crumb," and the toiler responds by fleeing, dying, being born... Until Emily herself is resurrected, which probably is unlikely, we can only guess her intentions. I will say, that having visited her home in Massachusetts, having walked her garden and having stood by her bed, the thought rings true in me that she simply was a born observer with a gift for description, comparisons and contrasts - ministress of boundless understanding.\n\nOf the ryhme scheme, I have been away from the books too long to remember how her beginning six lines of ABABAB relate to the continuing AABBCCDD lines. PLease read on with answers that will undoubtedly come from more expert knowledge. There are so many of us, Lovers of the Belle of Amherst, that you should get a respectable answer. Use your eyes to read them all, but remember to use your conscience to judge them. Best to you, dear person of quandary.

Another good fan of Jodie Foster's!! Awesome. I want to go into criminology myself. I don't know much about it, but I know qutie a bit on forensic science. Watch Forensic Files on CourTV and that give tons of info. You get to go to crime scenes and stuff. Like Clarice Starling on my favorite movie "The Silence of the Lambs". She got to check a body out, what you would do if you have to. Also, that deals with DNA and DNA encoding. Good Luck, and reply back so we can talk about Jodie.
