182 Words1 Page

I have started reading the second book in the Elves of Red series. Alvina’s grandmother ,after a month of nagging from Alvina, acknowledges her request and reveals the truth about her family. Alvina is shocked to find out that she is the reincarnation of a powerful sorceress, and the last breathing heir to the throne of Ignis.

    One of the quotes states, “She saw the man’s face twisted close to her own as if he were going to cry, and she murmured, Why you are one of my babies. You are one of my children !” (O’Connor 508). This quote shows that the grandmother is trying to persuade the Misfit to spare her life and not kill her like the rest of the family.

  • Gary Soto Behind Grandma's House Analysis

    1042 Words  | 5 Pages

    The speaker’s grandmother is originally presented in a way that causes the ending to be a surprise, saying, “Her apron flapping in a breeze, her hair mussed, and said, ‘Let me help you’” (21-22). The imagery of the apron blowing in the wind characterizes her as calm, and when she offers to help her grandson, she seems to be caring and helpful. Once she punches the speaker, this description of her changes entirely from one of serenity and care to a sarcastic description with much more meaning than before. The fact that the grandmother handles her grandson’s behavior in this witty, decisive way raises the possibility that this behavior is very common and she has grown accustomed to handling it in a way that she deems to be effective; however, it is clearly an ineffective method, evidenced by the continued behavior that causes her to punish the speaker in this manner in the first place.
