Setting in 'Devil in a Blue Dress' and Skinwalkers [ send me this paper ] A 3 page paper discussing these novels by Walter Mosley and Tony Hillerman, respectively. The paper points out that the culture of the locale in which these novels are set determines the ground rules for the entire novel. In this way, setting functions almost like the ruling spirit of the novel itself, setting the motivations of the characters in motion, and then stepping back while the characters move the plot. No additional sources cited. Filename: Skinwalk.wps
The Detective Genre in 'Devil in a Blue Dress' [ send me this paper ] A 6 page paper on the novel by Walter Mosley. The paper suggests that the novel has a hard time characterizing itself as either mystery or social commentary, and while it has elements of both, it has the strengths of neither. Much of this is caused by its somewhat predictable plot and slight characterizations. No additional sources cited. Filename: Devilin.wps

Amy Tan's 'The Hundred Secret Senses'/ The Contact Zone [ send me this paper ] An 8 page paper reading Amy Tan's novel The Hundred Secret Senses in the light of Mary Louise Pratt's 'Arts in the Contact Zone' and Alice Walker's 'In Search of Our Mother's Gardens.' The paper concludes that much of our success in making valid cross-cultural alliances occurs in an unconscious and 'magical' rather than logical and analytical way. Bibliography lists 3 sources. Filename: Contzone.wps
William Golding’s “Lord of the Flies” and the Theme of Violence [ send me this paper ] This 5 page report discusses Golding’s 1954 “Lord of the Flies” and its underlying themes of violence and fear. The story of the boys lost on a desert island serves as an allegory for the fundamental core of violence that is buried deep within every human. As the boys become increasingly polarized, the reader sees how far they have given over to the violence that is energizing them. No secondary sources listed in bibliography. Filename: BWflies.rtf
