... destroy his coffins with holy wafers and chase him out of England back to Castle Dracula. There they carry out an ultimate plan to destroy Dracula. The Author uses suspense as a storytelling device rather effectively throughout the story.

Nonetheless, The book is written in a unique way that allows suspense to be used easily and effectively built up. Dracula is written in first person like many other novels but the ...
... fear of scandal really prevents her from having any strong hold on the situation that will turn out successfully. This is proven in the end when Hedda commits suicide-she has lost control and is not strong enough to handle the ensuing scandal. Although out of the two actions, the worst seems to be Medea’s, it is also Medea’s actions that merit the most excuse as defense. She was having everything taken away from her, and she could not stop it, so she took the only action possible to make Jason understand how he had wronged her. Medea and Hedda, different in motive, actually are not all that different in their nature. Medea and Hedda come from very different backgrounds, yet the w ...
... the street with Gus. He and Gus see an airplane in the sky and Bigger says: “…God, I’d like to fly up there in that sky.” “God’ll let you fly when He gives you your wings up in heaven,” Gus said. The racial tension that has been building up since the first time the two races ever met has finally gotten to the point where a black person’s only hope of real freedom lies in his or her death. Conditions were much too cruel for the achievement of the American dream for most people, even in the rare instance that one did acquire his or her own home and family, prejudice kept him or her from living a full and normal life. Bigger was fully aware of his place in society and hated the whites for i ...

... follows close behind this rider because he always follows death. I believe that one day this will happen. It seems like its happening already since there are a lot of wars, a lot of poor countries that don't have the luxury like the richer counties and there are a lot of men slaying one another. If this was to happen right now there would be nothing for me to do. I wouldn’t be able to hide so then I would just buy some guns and protect myself.There were some prophets that say the horsemen will not come until the 23rd century, so then I have nothing to worry about. ...
... to Adele how she feels about her children and how she feels about herself, which greatly differs from the mother-woman image. She says: "I would give up the unessential; I would give my money; I would give my life for my children; but I wouldn't give myself. I can't make it more clear; it's only something I am beginning to comprehend, which is revealing itself to me." This specifically contrasts the mother-woman idea of self-sacrificing for your husband and children. Also, the "something . . . which is revealing itself" does not become completely clear to Edna herself until just before the end, when she does indeed give her life, but not her self for her children's sake. Alth ...
... would have to defend themselves against the civilians of Japan as well. It was also a fact that the Japanese government had been equipping the commoners with any kind of weapon they could get their hands on. It is true that this could mean a Japanese citizen could have anything from a gun to a spear, but many unsuspecting soldiers might have fallen victim to a surprise spear attack! The number of deaths that would have occurred would have been much greater, and an invasion would have taken a much longer period of time. The Japanese would have continued to fight the US with all of what they had; spears, guns, knives, whatever they could get their hands on, just as long as the ...
... men could still be his superiors even when they couldn't read like he did. These men still had the necessary skills to be good at what they needed to be good at in the circumstances they lived in. Then the young man supposed that he could buy with money the kind of men he wanted to associate with but that didn't work out either. "He found them not friendly. They were apart from him and he was still alone." He was still not satisfied. I think people often try to buy or impress the people they want for friends with money or the fancy things money can buy. People who are impressed by those things alone don't usually end up being real friends. The young man was captured by an Indian ...
