Wayward pines trilogy books5/28/2023 Throughout the second and third book, Wayward and The Last Town, we see Ethan Burke evolving both emotionally (with his family) and professionally (as Sheriff of the town). After explaining all the stuff about suspended animation and abbies to Ethan, David gives Ethan another chance to return to his life along with his family and take up the job of being the one and only Sheriff of Wayward Pines. The story unfolds with Ethan battling the invisible forces surveilling the town and some monstrous creatures called abbies to finally realize the secret of the town from the man who started it all: David Pilcher. In short, no way for Ethan to know about his family or work in Seattle. Why weird? Because there is no way to get out of this town, no way to contact people outside the town and people in the town itself act strangely as if they are under some surveillance. But things change after he lands up in a weird-as-hell town called Wayward Pines, Idaho. Though loving his wife a lot, he ends up cheating on her quite a few times. In the first book, Pines, Ethan is described as mostly a workaholic with no time for family. Our protagonist, Ethan Burke is our journey-chauffeur here. Leni zumas5/28/2023 Zumas successfully reminds that access to reproductive choice does not always signal an avenue to abortions. Indeed, Red Clocks serves as a conscientious parable for contemporary society. This is a clear reference to current Mike Pence’s attempt to pass similar legislation while Governor of Indiana. Zumas relies on several references to contemporary anti-abortion discourses including forcing women to hold funerals for fetuses. This world is akin to a right-wing extremists’ ideal. In accordance with the United States, Canada reinforces the Pink Wall, disallowing border crossers from seeking reproductive procedures anywhere in the northern country. By extension, adoption practices are amended by Every Child Needs Two, an act prohibiting single people from adopting. Women found seeking abortion services face similar punishments.įurther, since embryos can’t give their consent, in vitro fertilization is also banned. Abortion is illegal and providers caught administering one are charged with second-degree murder. This legislation “gives the constitutional right to life, liberty, and property to a fertilized egg at the moment of conception” (32). Set in Oregon, the plot unfolds about a month prior to the enactment of the Personhood Amendment. A reproductive dystopian novel, Zumas fictionalizes the consequences of banishing pro-choice legislation. In Leni Zumas’ Red Clocks, American women have lost all corporeal agency. Charlie chocolate factory book5/28/2023 In his lifetime, Dahl was a fierce advocate for immunization-his daughter died of measles in 1962-and posthumously, Felicity Dahl created Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity to support sick children. Dahl was married twice, first to actress Patricia Neal and then to Felicity Dahl. 1961’s James and the Giant Peach, however, catapulted him to fame and became the first of his many successful children’s novels. Throughout the 1940s and 50s, Dahl published a number of short stories for adults as well as The Gremlins, his first book for children. During his time in the U.S., Dahl published his first story, anecdotes about his time as a pilot. He flew again and served briefly as a flight instructor after his recovery, but then became a diplomat in Washington, D.C. In 1940, Dahl was seriously injured in a crash landing that temporarily robbed him of his sight. Following school, Dahl worked for Shell Oil until World War II, in which Dahl served as a fighter pilot. However, Dahl’s school days were unpleasant for him-he hated the hazing rituals and prevalence of corporal punishment. Rather than return to Norway to live near family, Dahl’s mother remained in Wales so her children could be educated in English schools. When he was still very young, Dahl’s sister and father died within weeks of each other. Dahl was born in Cardiff, Wales to Norwegian immigrant parents.
