lights glowed so brightly it was painful
super raw.
brighter than ever,
all electric,
black oil that fed the light

light bright and awesome

its shade up over the bulb
sight of it’s color and illuminosity was shocking,
sensual in the darkness.

So far, what does your book say about the American experience? That there are allways choices to be made and they are ot allways easy. The sheriffs choice of saving his brother or turning him in is a test of his morals and his character. He is also weighing into the situation the victim, who is an Indian. He is racist towards them but willo he act upon his feelings of hatred? The American Experience of this book is that of being immersed in a multicultural setting.

cheeks glowed so brightly they looked painful
rubbed raw.
darker than ever,
all pupil,
black water that swallowed light
lips pale and chapped.
Her dress up over her knees
sight of her legs and feet was shocking,
sensual in the sickroom.

A change

For the worse

air: humid. Stanley was drenched

sweat

Beads of moisture

the air itself was sweating.

boom of thunder echoed

A storm

off to the west, the mountains.

thirty seconds between the lightning and thunder.

Sound travels across a barren wasteland.

http://www.longwood.edu/English/Montana1948.jpgI am reading Montana 1948 by Larry Watson. He also wrote White Crasses. I chose it because I heard it was a mystery and I like mystery books. I am looking forward to arguing with my fellow classmates in the literature circles.
