In Paris With You

Product Information

However the casual, careless voice who dismisses all the sights of Paris and draws attention to their apparently ‘sleazy’ hotel room, gradually becomes physically involved with the mysterious ‘you’ and things become more interesting. it is almost as if the early ‘you’ is really not the ‘you’ in the room but the ‘you’ in his past, still very much present in his/her mind.The apparently tatty surrounds could be a sign of their economic spending or could be teh way he sees their room as ‘sleazy’ as they know they are not in love with this companion and feel it to be sleazy…. One way in which the poets present their ideas about the pain of love is through their use of imagery with their poems. For example, they both use metaphors about being ‘wounded’. Fenton’s line ‘I’m one of your talking wounded’ adopts a pun which relates to the expression ‘walking wounded’, used by soldiers to imply resilience. He feels as though love has previously ‘wounded’ him, if not actually finished him off. Similarly, continuing with the theme of violence, Duffy uses an extended metaphor throughout the whole poem which presents the break-up of her relationship as a gunfight in a Western movie. Lexis such as ‘trigger’, ‘silver bullets’, ‘wide of the mark’ and ‘blast me’ presents the effect of breaking up as wounding her physically. I was born in Paris in 1989 and though I started to read children’s books pretty early, I somehow never stopped. As a result, I’ve become a writer, reader and student of children’s literature. I’ve now been living and studying in Cambridge (UK) for seven years and have become a doctor. Well, not the type that saves people’s lives. The type that scribbles ‘PhD’ after their name and rambles on about beauty, truth and the value of (all) literature. Worth striving for, I think! More about my academic work here.

Furthemore, I adore the main character, Tatiana. She is a clever, strong, determine, loving and caring young woman. As she grew older she realized the importance of being appreciated. Therefore, making her stronger to live the life that she lives. And yet, it was difficult to contradict Eugene at that moment, since on her duffle coat was a massive badge, and on that badge a baby grinned, a big white speech bubble proudly declaring in capital letters:And yet it was interesting for Eugene, who had hardly ever experienced this kind of feeling before, First person narrators may also divulge enough information about themselves to make them appear loathsome or certainly unkind.( Think of Pip in Great Expectations for example) This may suggest that first person narration is actually like a form of self- persecution. A confession! – The story took you from the characters during their teenage years to the current time with the characters. The love story wasn't too far fetched, but I really didn't care for the ending too much. I like my romances to have a happy ending and this one was just, eh.. whatever, for me.

Writing an extended analysis piece based upon how Sheers gets across the narrator's feelings in the poem, through the use of language and structure; The other thing I do is write books – children’s books, surprisingly enough. In fact, it’s not ‘the other thing’. It’s the first thing I ever did, really – long before I heard that you could actually analyse books for a living, I wanted to write books for a living. So I started writing, and ultimately getting published – in French first, and now in English as well. My first series of children’s books in English, led by self-made superheroine Sesame Seade, is being published in 2013 by Hodder Children’s Books! Repeated use of colloquial languagr suggesting informality and honesty. Phrases make poem seem down to earth. Such language contrasts with falsely poetic tone often found in literature about love, replacing to comic effect.In this stanza, the phrase “I’m in Paris” almost acts as a euphemism for being in ecstasy. The narrator lists the things that bring him to that state, including their partner’s eyes and mouth and “all points south” once again a euphemism, this time for their partner’s sexual organs! But this isn’t meant to be too crude, rather it is meant to be taken in a playful nature. We can see this from the line that follows, as the narrator teasingly asks “am I embarrassing you?” before tying up the poem nicely by ending on the refrain. The pain's not worse after ten years. It doesn't necessarily increase with time. It's not an investment, you know, regret. Lost love doesn't have to be a tragedy." Secondly, I love the format of the book. It was written in a poem format! Hence, making it fun and fast to read.
