There is no denying the fact that George Orwell was a British Columnist and Author, who had created   the renowned two novels of the 20th century 'Animal Farm' and 'Nineteen Eighty-Four' through which he had shown a restoration of new civilized era by way of criticism and comparison   of social and economical consequences. Orwell was born Eric Arthur Blair on 25 June 1903 in eastern India, the son of a British colonial civil servant. He was learned in England and, after he had left Eton, became attached with the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, then a British outpost. He was acquiescent in 1927 and strong-willed to turn out to be a writer. In 1928, he stimulated to Paris where lack of accomplishment as a writer enforced him into a series of tedious jobs. He narrated his experience in his first book, 'Down and Out in Paris and London', published in 1933. He took the name George Orwell, shortly before its publication. This was followed by his first nove...

There is no denying the fact that some rare personalities have come down to this ephemeral world who have ornamented and beautified globally by dint of merit and hardihood, sir Isaac Newton was one of the   personality in this world. Sir Isaac Newton was famous for his stupendous discoveries exclusively the theory of gravity and gravitation, calculus and optics. His discoveries were so copious and speckled that many consider him to be the father of modern science.

The concept of the  science fair   The concept of science fair has come down to us from European education pattern and their cultural growth of culture.

 My favourite story:'The Fall of the House of Usher.' by Edgar Allan Poe The Fall of the House of Usher has been reflected in black and white in the form of the Gothic style which is perceptible from the launch of this anecdote, the withstand and ambiance mirror the narrator’s depressing mood as if the corporal world is associated to him or one way or another conscious of his existence. This is typical of Gothic literature. The bleak horror of this scene is bound to correspond to greater horrors within. As Edgar Allan Poe has contemplated in the story, "The Fall of the House of Usher", he revitalizes categorization, and imagery to illustrate fear, terror, and shadows on the human intelligence.  Roderick and his twin sister Madeline are the last of the all time-honored House of Usher. They are both suffering from rather strange illnesses which may be attributed to the intermarriage of the family. Roderick suffers from "a morbid acuteness of t...

My review of the story'The Stoat’ by John McGahern' There is no denying the fact that in the story ‘The Stoat’ by John McGahern we have the theme of self-contentedness, terror, blame, negative response and integrity. Narrated in the third person by an unnamed narrator the reader realizes after reading the story that McGahern may be exploring the theme of selfishness. The protagonist’s father on hearing that Miss McCabe has had a heart attack decides to abandon any notions he had of getting engaged to Miss McCabe. It is as though the protagonist’s father doesn’t want to care for Miss McCabe should the need arise. This may be important as it suggests that the protagonist’s father is being selfish. Thinking only of his own approach rather than on how Miss McCabe may feel.   It envisages to be a case that if the focal point is not on him he does not want to get engaged to or marry Miss McCabe. If anything Miss McCabe has become a liability rather than an asset to the prota...

My review of the story 'The Lemon Orchard by Alex la Guma' There is no denying the fact that in ‘The Lemon Orchard’ by Alex la Guma we encompass the theme of racial discrimination, favoritism, chain of command and prejudice. Having narrated in the third person by an anonymous raconteur, the reader realizes after reading the story that la Guma may be exploring the theme of bigotry and inequity. The coloured man who is described by his captors as being a ‘hotnot’ is being led throughout the lemon orchard by a cluster of white men. His hands are bound and for part of the story he has the muzzle of a shotgun against his back. His only crime was to have an argument or indifference with the local church minister. This suggests that there is a hierarchy occurring and the coloured man is at the lower end of the scale due to his skin colour. It might also be important to mention that the story is set during the apartheid era in South Africa.   When black people did not have the s...

A review of the novel ‘When it’s over’ by Barbara Ridley There is no denying the fact that Barbara Ridley’s historical fiction novel,  When It’s Over , is a wonderfully written story centred on the political situation in England during World War II.

Loneliness In the wake of peace and harmony To generate a base under the greenwood trees, In the piles of leaves, dried and green; To grow and deteriorate for sequential flow.  Not for lust but for the least of life Which is immersed in deep thought? And co-sequential flow in dearth Who knows the hidden mystery? To start and fly over the sky.  And the ocean to create For knowing the plants, creepers, and herbs  Immersed in the deep sense of the cave Hills, rocks, sand, and heaps of leaves Not knowing someone is exciting and scary in motion To see the animals very ferocious and heinous The thing that lags behind. Those are found and rescued from the unusual  In the land that is a place without people But suitable to take abode forever Like the spiritual beams glittered in the waves Over the sky and in motion, glittering Like the disappearance of the lost hopes  And an aspiration to flow on the earth As if the dear...
