415 Words2 Pages

The year was 1968, in a small town in Alabama where Joshua started his path to manhood. Joshua: Lost in a forest surrounded by strange trees. No sense of direction. Alone! There I sat under a bog tree exhausted from my attempts to get back home. How did I get here? Where am I? Does anybody know I’m lost in this wilderness? My mind was full of questions who will answer me? Joshua! … Joshua! Joshua: Am I going crazy? Or did I hear my name coming from the top of this tree? Quietly I sat hoping to hear something, someone, and anybody who could guide me home. I know I heard my name, but all I saw was trees: dead trees, dried up trees, fruitless trees, colorful shades, all types and sizes, some uprooted, leafless, many leaning on other

    172 Words  | 1 Pages

    With descriptions of their mundane school grounds, unsightly home lives, and the rough and tough appearance of the boys, Joshua Davis paints vivid portraits of the main characters of his novel. While thumbing through the novel, I could feel the fear associated with the constant threat of deportation, and the anxiety of wondering if their families were going to be there when they returned home. When it was revealed that the boys had succeeded in winning the competition, I felt a physical wave of happiness and relief wash over me. This kind imagery and ability to translate emotion is essential in telling a story such as this, because a person truly needs to be able to place themselves in the shoes of those boys to be able to fully appreciate

I feel that I am led by the same impulse which forces the un-found-out criminal to take somebody into his confidence, although he knows that the act is likely, even almost certain, to lead to his undoing. I know that I am playing with fire, and I feel the thrill which accompanies that most fascinating pastime; and, back of it all, I think I find a sort of savage and diabolical desire to gather up all the little tragedies of my life, and turn them into a practical joke on society”

    The lights flickered in the cavernous space, echos of light yet purposeful footsteps would boom through hall. A black obsidian throne sat at the far wall, a man, probably in his middle ages, would sit, a crown of bones ,from challengers before, sat on his head. He’d smirk seeing the small figure approaching.
