selfish desire for political amnesty at the high cost of destroying a
family.
The cause is actively consuming Sonny's life, annihilating his
family. He is becoming so entangled within the political endeavor that he

True Sinners
... it in a diminished way that is less serious than of Dimmesdale and Chillingworth. Hester's sin was a sin of desire. This sin was openly acknowledged as she wore the "A" on her chest. Although she is not justified, Hester did not commit the greatest sin of the novel. She did not deliberately commit her sin or mean to hurt others. Hester's sin is that her passions and love were of more importance to her than the Puritan moral code. This is shown when she says to Dimmesdale, "What we did had a consecration of its own. We felt it so! We said so to each other!" Hester fully acknowledged her guilt and displayed it with ...

The new Board of Aldermen, Homer Barron and in what is called by Faulkner “the next generation with its more modern ideas” (qtd. in Kirzner & Mandell 81). The descriptions of her house “lifting its stubborn and coquettish decay above the cotton wagons and the gasoline pumps--an eyesore among eyesores” (qtd. in Kirzner & Mandell 80) showed a comparison of the past and present while also showing a representation of Emily herself.

Hamlets Impractical Thinking A
... most unnatural murder.” [1.5: 29, 31] With these words, the Ghost puts the play in motion, for the rest of the story will be governed by Hamlet’s quest for this revenge. Furthermore, the spirit emphasizes the need for Hamlet to act quickly:
I am thy father’s spirit,
Doomed for a certain term to walk the night
And for the day confined to fast in fires
Till the foul crimes done in my days of nature
Are burnt and purged away. [1.5: 14-18]

... "Her eyes were blue with age. Her skin had a pattern all of its own of numberless branching wrinkles and as though a whole little tree stood in the middle of her forehead..." (94), was the first description that the author gave describing how old she really was.
This brings me back to what kind of society did Phoenix Jackson live in, were there no other people that would make this long journey for this old lady or was there anybody at all.

To add to this the narrator is already aware that there had been a fatal accident involving the young Duke who had fallen down the stairs, supposedly running away from a ghost. This adds tension because it makes the reader wonder what is going to happen to the narrator as he does not believe that the castle is haunted. The way that the past suspicious happenings appear in the middle of the story also creates a lot of tension, as reading from the beginning, the reader does not know the circumstances responsible for the fear felt by the three residing custodians.
