Het boek gaat over hoe de hoofdpersoon, Jake Barnes, in het leven staat. Het verhaal is eigenlijk de ?gedachte? van Jake. Jake laat zien hoe zijn kennissen en vooral Brett, een vrouw waar hij eigenlijk verliefd op is. Het probleem is alleen dat Brett nogal gepassioneerd is maar dat Jake, door een wond die hij heeft overgehouden van de eerste wereld oorlog, impotent is. Brett houd ook van hem maar heeft het moeilijk met zijn impotentie. Brett heeft heel veel relaties. Ook is ze verloofd met Mike. Mike is heel erg verliefd op haar maar weet wel dat ze ook andere relaties heeft. Omdat Jake en Brett geen relatie aan kunnen gaan proberen ze vrienden te worden. Later in het verhaal wordt Brett verliefd op een toreador. Jake vindt deze toreador een voorbeeld van een echte held hoe hij met zijn stieren moet omgaan. Hij doet het heel stijlvol en als hij mocht sterven zou hij dat meteen doen. Ik heb verder niet echt een plot in het verhaal kunnen ontdekken. Het eind komt er eigenlijk op neer dat alles hetzelfde is gebleven. Het eerste stuk dat een indruk op mij maakte was die waar Jake, Brett probeert te kussen: ??Don?t touch me,? she said. ?Please don?t touch me.? ?What?s the matter?? ?I can?t stand it.? ?Oh Brett.? ?You mustn?t.

You must know. I can?t stand it, that?s all. Oh, darling, please understand!? ?Don?t you love me?? ?Love you? I simply turn all to jelly when you touch me.?? (blz. 27) Het maakte een indruk op mij omdat ik de tegengesteldheid erg vreemd vond. Aan de ene kant houd Brett wel van Jake maar ze wil niet dat hij haar aanraakt. Het tweede stuk was die waar Jake en Brett naar een stierengevecht zijn gegaan: ?The two steers turned sideways to take the shock, and the bull drove into one of the steers. ?Don?t look,? I said to Brett. She was watching, fascinated. ?Fine,? I said. ?If it doesn?t buck you.? ?I saw it,? she said. ?I saw him shift from his left to his right horn.? ?Damn good!?? (124) Ik vond dit een apart stukje omdat ik het wel grappig vond dat Jake eigenlijk probeert, Brett het geweld te besparen terwijl Brett het eigenlijk geweldig vindt. Het derde stuk was die waar Brett haar zelfcontrole verliest: ??I can?t help it. I?m a goner now, anyway. Don?t you see the difference? I?ve got to do something. I?ve got to do something I really want to do. I?ve lost my self-respect? (blz. 161) Dit maakte zo?n indruk op mij omdat daarvoor Brett heel zelfverzekerd leek te zijn en wel wist hoe ze mannen om haar vinger moest draaien en dit de eerste keer was waar zij ?om de vinger werd gedraaid?.
Het laatste stuk was die waar Cohn op de toreador in gaat slaan maar deze maar steeds weer blijft opstaan: ??The bull-fighter fellow was rather good. He didn?t say much, but he kept getting up and getting knocked down again. Cohn couldn?t knock him out?? (blz. 176) Dit maakte een grote indruk op mij omdat de wilskracht van de toreador om niet onderuit te gaan zo goed naar voren kwam. The story takes place in Paris just after W.W. I. The story is written in the I-form. The whole story is told by Jake and lets the reader see how Jake sees things. I think the title ?The sun also rises? refers to how the sun comes up and goes down and nothing changes that. I think this is the same as what happens to the characters? nothing. Everything stays the same in the end. (outside characteristics) First impressions (inside characteristics) Final opinion Commentary I couldn?t find something about his outward appearance only that he has a wound from the war I found Jake a bit depressing he didn?t saw the fun in life anymore He is a bit weak because he can?t live with that he?s impotent I think he has it very hard with coping with the war and what happened to him than. She has short hair and ?she is built with curves like the hull of a racing yacht.

Two of the people you are to picture are boys somewhere in their twenties. They are drunk rednecks. The third person is a little black (this is how they are referred to in the book, I do not mean to be ...

I found it a very depressing book because there was nothing good happening. Furthermore, I found the book very heavy, it where al heavy problems that the characters had to deal with. I also found it a bit boring because there wasn?t much action and that?s what I like in a book. So the book didn?t come to my expectations because I thought it would be a book with some action in it. I thought that because of the red cover of the book. I wouldn?t recommend this book to others because it?s very heavy and very boring so it?s hard to come through the book.
The Essay on Frankenstein Creature Thought Good
Mary Shelly's Romantic novel Frankenstein was a momentous accomplishment in the area of writing. Not only was the author only twenty-one when Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus was published in 1818, but the author was a woman. She became a very profitable author even though she only wrote one book, Frankenstein, which is said to be the first science-fiction novel. Victor Frankenstein, the ...
