... a "cinematic" quality in its emphasis on visual imagery, setting, and action. The opening descriptions of place (Bamako) and person (Niakoro) are typical. So is the set-up for "Thiès: The City" on page 13. Note, as well, how the narrative seems to "pan" the market place on pages 15 and 16. The large number of characters and the way the setting moves from place to place may pose some difficulty, but they're fairly simple to sort out. The map helps with places. Making lists of characters associated with each town helps, as well. The action takes place in several locations (an interesting filmic term)--primarily in Ba ...

For Daisy, it lies in material wealth, and in the comfort and security associated with it. Daisy seems to be easily impressed by material success, as when she is touring Gatsby's mansion and seems deeply moved by his collection of fine, tailored shirts. It would seem that Tom's relative weal ...

... loses his job. This, in a way, is very similar to what happened to AIM (American Indian Movement) some years back. The natives were upset about the Government's neglect of treaties and grants. The natives held a peaceful rally in a town, then they all packed up, and moved it to Wounded Knee. Wounded Knee was the sight of a terrible massacre in the late 1800's.
