1035 Words5 Pages

Stars In the book stars will be taking on the different meanings throughout the book, since the little prince said before "All men have stars, but they are not the same things for different people."

So he kept asking the same question that the narrator didn’t know, so then the narrator got mad so then the prince was mad too because he is really worried and the narrator didn’t help him. I think the reason he did that was because he was just worry and scared because he didn't wanted to lose her and wants to stay with her, but he went on a trip so then he was mad at himself that he didn’t stay with

  • James Joyce Araby Final Scene Analysis

The reader feels a profound melancholy which matches the protagonist’s own, an impressive feat given the story’s short length and the lack of description, or even a name, given to the boy.
