I Don't Wear A Sunscreen
BOOK REVIEW BY ANIRBAN NANDA
DIGISHA ONLINE MAGAZINE, EDITION ONEAlitera 18
Just completed “I don't wear sunscreen” by Kavipriya Moorthy. It took only three hours though.To read how I feel
aboutit,readon.
The novel (can be called novella) is written with dates and also is divided into many chapters. I think any one of
themwoulddojustﬁne.Thesearemeretechnicalities.Let'smoveon tothemainstory.
So our story is about mainly ups and downs of two childhood friends and how it turns out to be a totally
unexpectedjourney.
For the ﬁrst ﬁfty pages (half of the book) it seemed a simple story about complication due to distance in a
childhood friendship. I was thinking it would end in catching up with the ruined relation and some philosophical
lecturesonlifeandso. Butittotallyslappedmeandpointedwhatitwas hidingunderneathitssimplestory.
While I was mulling over why Laksha had disappeared, then suddenly a revelation! What makes this book
interestingissimplythis:
1. The author casually describes everything like it'll go on forever and then suddenly unveils her hidden plot
twists.
2. Every word written here will convince you that she's written it from her heart. After every 2-3 pages you will
ﬁnd somethoughtprovokinglineslike:
If a past relationship hurts you now, it means you matured over time, but what was it can never be replaced by any
othermemory.To fallinloveishuman,tobetrayis alsohumanifyou takeacloserlookatit.
And another thing, this is probably the ﬁrst book where epilogue seemed more interesting than the complete book.
At epilogue, out betrayer or antagonist (somewhat) reveals why she did what she did. It was pretty
understandable, provided some other socioeconomic conditions. Still in my opinion, I'll never forgive Pallavi for
what she did, no matter how many reasons she showed, how much pain she suffered. It felt very fresh when the
ﬁrst person narrationsuddenlychangedfromLakshatoPallavi.
Whatcouldhavebeenbetter:
Laksha's mother was an extremely complex and interesting character which could have been depicted better. It's a
wasted opportunity. She was raped, she once forced Laksha to keep trying to swim even up to the verge of
drowning, and she totally ignored her daughter's problems initially knowing everything. Such a character could
havebeendescribedmore.
At the core, this book is all about how uncertain life can be and how we should not lose hope in any moment in our
life. Relationships are expertly analyzed, human psychology is closely examined and ﬁnally a nice and slow story
is greatly converted into a nail biting mystery. Kudos to the author for her achievement in her debut work itself.
Wish herallthebestforherupcomingprojects.

The document summarizes three English fairy tales - Mr. Fox, Master of All Masters, and Lazy Jack. It then analyzes characters, locations, audiences, and visual styles of the tales. Key points include: the main characters are usually children or teenagers, with supporting characters like parents or employers; settings reflect wealth or poverty of characters; the target audience is younger adolescents; and the visual style will be futuristic while grounded with realistic character formats. Ideas like the protagonist trying different methods to succeed from Lazy Jack, or a seeming friend hiding a crucial tool like in Mr. Fox, could be adapted to the author's own graphic narrative story.

Intro to Literature: Theme Presentation

mbatista95

The document discusses the literary device of theme. It defines theme as the central idea or message within a work of literature, often expressed through characters' actions and words. Common themes are discussed such as love, good vs. evil, and coming of age. Two short stories are then analyzed in more depth: Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" and Ursula K. Le Guin's "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas." For "The Lottery," themes of mob mentality leading to disaster and the inevitability of mortality are explored. For "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas," themes of sacrificing one for the many and the cruelty of humanity are examined.

Re-thinking Fairytales: Happily “Never” After?

inventionjournals

Fairytales occupy a special place in the mindset of youngsters while consciously and subconsciously shaping their outlook regarding the issues mentioned in those tales. Occupying almost every child‟s hearts as bedtime stories, fairytales describe it all. We are given a brief description of a prince, a maiden or a princess, her sorrows and sufferings and a heroic and adventurous narration of the prince rescuing the princess. This paper shows the way politics of patriarchy is put to work through these mere fairytales. It further explains how telling and re-telling of these stories “normalize” the situation in such a way that women in general feel the necessity of being under patriarchal rule. For this paper, several versions of some famous fairytales were analyzed that showed how all the variations end up delivering partially or completely the same kind of messages. This paper used the computer animated film Happily N’Ever After directed by Yvette Kaplan and Paul Bolger as an example that emphasizes the observations made here about these fairy tales. Finally, it also details how a new kind of re-telling can go a long way to bring about a change in these stereotypes.

Main magazine cover research 3

The magazine cover features a simple masthead with the letter "Q" prominently displayed in the corner to draw attention as it does not spell out the full name. This allows more space for the central image of Lily Allen topless but facing away to emphasize her sexuality and promote interest in her purported "wicked" acts described inside. Panthers on the image further this implication, linking her to wildness. The use of red text and positioning of "wicked" enhances the intrigue of her actions.

Roots is a 2016 novel by Indian author Rahul Bhatt about Ganesh, a priest and astrologer living in Delhi who supports himself by predicting others' futures. The story explores Ganesh's family history in Delhi from 1857 to 1984 and his connection to his hometown, which is doomed to lose its existence to urban development. Through Ganesh's reading of his ancestor's memoirs and the intertwining stories of a suicide, a dam project, and a reality show, the novel tells a gripping tale of longing and displacement that tugs at the heartstrings for what has been lost.

Proposal

AlanSmith96

I will create a 4-page graphic novel that retells the story of Jack and the Beanstalk with a modern twist. The graphic novel will use photographs that I take and edit to have a comic book style. There will be minimal text to explain the scenes and show dialogue. This graphic novel is aimed at older children between 10-15 years old and those interested in classic tales but with a new perspective. It will stay true to the original story but modernize aspects like the Giant having an afro and Jack trading a dog instead of a cow for the magic beans. This twist is intended to appeal to children and engage them in reading the novel.

The story is about a blind man traveling on a train who engages in conversation with a young woman also on the train. Neither the man nor the reader of the story realize that the woman is also blind. It is only after she leaves and another passenger enters that the man learns she was blind as well. The major theme of the story is about the limits of human perception and how preconceptions and assumptions can prevent people from perceiving realities right in front of them, as in this case where neither the blind man nor the reader recognized the woman was blind too.

Proposal

AlanSmith96

This proposal is for a graphic novel that retells the classic story of Jack and the Beanstalk over 4 pages with a modern twist. Photographs taken by the author and edited to look like comic book panels will illustrate the story, which will include minimal text. The graphic novel aims to appeal to older children between 10-15 years old by keeping the basic plot but updating details like the Giant having an afro and Jack trading a dog instead of a cow for the magic beans.

Children's Literature Analysis

Rebecca West

This document discusses and evaluates two picture books: The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith, and The Three Bears by F. Rojankovsky. It examines how both books can be used to teach traditional literature based on eight criteria. For The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs, it analyzes how the story is told from the wolf's perspective, compares it to the traditional version, and discusses classroom activities that could be done. For The Three Bears, it looks at how the illustrations help explain unfamiliar terms and how the book could stimulate creative expression.

The blue donkey

Suniti Namjoshi is an Indian author known for her work "Tales of the Blue Donkey". The document discusses several stories from this collection that feature a blue donkey who lives by a red bridge. In the first story, local councilors demand the donkey change color, but she refuses. This causes the councilors to argue among themselves. Later stories see the donkey become famous but ultimately retire. Namjoshi's work draws from Indian literary traditions like Panchatantra to construct feminist narratives centered around recognition, resistance, and subverting expectations.

FMP Context Research & Statement

HarryAllinson2

This document discusses several fantasy authors and their works: - Hayao Miyazaki directed films like Spirited Away that feature journeys of self-discovery and overcoming obstacles through hard work. - Lewis Carroll wrote Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and used nonsense and magical realism. He had health issues that may have influenced his fantastical style. - C.S. Lewis wrote The Chronicles of Narnia and blended science fiction with religious and spiritual themes. His own religious journey likely impacted his storytelling. - The contextual statement says the document informed the idea for a time-travel film, influenced by works like Dr. Who that explore time dimensions. COVID restrictions may complicate production planning.

A Simulator for Social Exchanges and Collaborations - Architecture and Case S...

Simon Caton

Social collaboration scenarios, such as sharing resources between friends, are becoming increasingly prevalent in recent years. An example of this new paradigm is Social Cloud Computing, which aims at leveraging existing digital relationships within social networks for the exchange of resources among users and user communities. Due to their complexity, such platforms and systems have to be carefully designed and engineered to suit their purpose. In this paper, we propose a general-purpose simulation tool to help in the design and analysis of Social Collaboration Platforms, and discuss potential use cases and the architecture of the simulator. To show the usefulness of the simulator, we present a simple use case in which we study the effects of an incentive scheme on the system and its user community.

Ice-cream is a delicacy known to most of us and it is enjoyed daily around the world, even in colder climates. It is commonly based on cream or milk and sometimes eggs to form a custard like base. Sweeteners are added, once in the form of fruit, now largely replaced by sugar, but the tasty ice cream Raipur we enjoy today has not changed hugely from the early efforts of frozen dessert makers.

The Institute of Egypt was founded in late August 1798 in Cairo by order of Napoleon, with Gaspard Monge as president. It was modeled after the French Institut de France and had the goals of advancing knowledge in Egypt, studying the country's industries, history, and natural phenomena, and advising the French government. The Institute housed collections and laboratories for its scholar members to conduct research. It ceased to exist when the French departed Egypt in 1801, but the scholars' work was later compiled in the extensive Description de l'Egypte published between 1809 and 1828.

This document presents Newton's divided difference polynomial method of interpolation. It defines interpolation as finding the value of 'y' at an unspecified value of 'x' given a set of (x,y) data points. Newton's method uses divided differences to determine the coefficients of a polynomial that can be used to interpolate and estimate y-values between the given data points. The document includes an example of applying Newton's method to find the interpolating polynomial and estimate an unknown y-value for a given set of 5 (x,y) data points.

Writertain Publishers presents the maiden cover of her Emagazine, Writertain Creatives. Writertain Publishers started with the aim of rejuvenating the concept of creativity in African Literature. And for that, we have studies some methods used by established countries and have decided to employ them in the African fiction-writing world. One major example is the way the French military employed science fiction writers to help imagine future threats [1]. In that light, we have decided to take the following steps: Goal 1: Training of Students We are focused on training children that want to go into fiction writing. Our aim is not only to teach them how to improve their writing but also how to make money off it, since there are international markets like Fiverr, Upwork, and Freelancers that accept works from Nigerians. Goal 2: Branding the Online Writing Community Our foreign counterparts are involved in different ways of making authors feel confident about their works as well as making their readers part of it by giving publishing bestsellers of the week, month and year. Nigeria is yet to have an established rate company for this. Thus, we have created our website to help in keeping Wiki of Nigerian writers, accumulating bestsellers, and training Nigerian fiction writers. This is a first of its kind in Africa.

- It typically takes writing 400,000-500,000 words (about 4-5 novels) before an author finds their unique writing voice. This is equivalent to writing 1,000 blog posts or 80 short stories. - Agents and editors can often tell if a writer hasn't found their voice within the first few pages or even the first paragraph of a manuscript. - The second step to developing your voice is to listen to feedback from readers. Their input on what works and doesn't work helps shape your evolving writing style over time.

7 Habits of Highly Effective People.pptx

gpangilinan2017

Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list. But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift. That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles. The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world. Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself. The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.

It took only three hours though.To read how I feel aboutit,readon. The novel (can be called novella) is written with dates and also is divided into many chapters. I think any one of themwoulddojustfine.Thesearemeretechnicalities.Let'smoveon tothemainstory. So our story is about mainly ups and downs of two childhood friends and how it turns out to be a totally unexpectedjourney. For the first fifty pages (half of the book) it seemed a simple story about complication due to distance in a childhood friendship. I was thinking it would end in catching up with the ruined relation and some philosophical lecturesonlifeandso. Butittotallyslappedmeandpointedwhatitwas hidingunderneathitssimplestory. While I was mulling over why Laksha had disappeared, then suddenly a revelation! What makes this book interestingissimplythis: 1. The author casually describes everything like it'll go on forever and then suddenly unveils her hidden plot twists. 2. Every word written here will convince you that she's written it from her heart. After every 2-3 pages you will find somethoughtprovokinglineslike: If a past relationship hurts you now, it means you matured over time, but what was it can never be replaced by any othermemory.To fallinloveishuman,tobetrayis alsohumanifyou takeacloserlookatit. And another thing, this is probably the first book where epilogue seemed more interesting than the complete book. At epilogue, out betrayer or antagonist (somewhat) reveals why she did what she did. It was pretty understandable, provided some other socioeconomic conditions. Still in my opinion, I'll never forgive Pallavi for what she did, no matter how many reasons she showed, how much pain she suffered. It felt very fresh when the first person narrationsuddenlychangedfromLakshatoPallavi. Whatcouldhavebeenbetter: Laksha's mother was an extremely complex and interesting character which could have been depicted better. It's a wasted opportunity. She was raped, she once forced Laksha to keep trying to swim even up to the verge of drowning, and she totally ignored her daughter's problems initially knowing everything. Such a character could havebeendescribedmore. At the core, this book is all about how uncertain life can be and how we should not lose hope in any moment in our life. Relationships are expertly analyzed, human psychology is closely examined and finally a nice and slow story is greatly converted into a nail biting mystery. Kudos to the author for her achievement in her debut work itself. Wish herallthebestforherupcomingprojects.
