When Sybil takes the stage again, murder plays the leading role.

In September 1873, actress and medium Sybil Ingram is looking forward to her new life as the wife of dashing violinist Roderick Brooke. But their plans for marriage are interrupted when Julia de Lioncourt, Roderick’s former lover, implores him to come to Paris to rescue her from a blackmailer.

    Starting with the first poem, TKAM can relate to this because it is similar to how Jem and Scout would walk to home from school. The first section states how the writer can remember calling their mother from the hall in the basement. This gives me an image of Scout or Jem calling Atticus. Sections two through 4 basically just gives an imagery of Scout, Jem, and occasionally Dill walking to their house. The final section stands out though because in the book, Scout does explain how her and Jem did walk home from school during winter.

    Connector-The Chrysalids The first connection I can make is a text to world connection. The point I would like to relate is how norms and deviations are separated in the book and that can also occur in real life. It is not to the extreme of banning them from the country like how deviations are in Waknuk, but there are several forms of discrimination in the real world. David describes the discrimination of deviations in Waknuk throughout the whole book.
