BOOK JACKET INFORMATION
standing on the fringes of life ... offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it
looks like from the dance floor.
This haunting novel about the dilemma of passivity vs. passion marks the stunning debut of a
provocative new voice in contemporary fiction: The Perks Of Being A WALLFLOWER
This is the story of what it’s like to grow up in high school. More intimate than a diary, Char-
lie’s letters are singular and unique, hilarious and devastating. We may not know where he lives. We
may not know to whom he is writing. All we know is the world he shares. Caught between trying
to live his life and trying to run from it puts him on a strange course through uncharted territory.
The world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends. The world of sex, drugs,
and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect
drive to feel infinite.
Through Charlie, Stephen Chbosky has created a deeply affecting coming-of-age story, powerful
novel that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller coaster days known as growing up.

Many of the stories we read were about expectations, traditional roles, and values; that is what all of these stories hold in common. Traditional roles and values are an inherited, established or customary patterns of thought, action or behavior (as a religious practice or social custom) www.webster.com . In each of these stories what is expected plays a role in their actions and thoughts.
The Culinary Lesson tells us about a woman who did as society expected, she married. Although she was educated, upon her marriage she states that “she wandered lost in classrooms, in streets, in offices, in cafes; wasting my time in skills that I now need to forget in order to acquire others.” (pg 43) Everything she learned was no longer important because she had to play the traditional role of the housewife. Miraculously, she was to know how to cook, clean and entertain because she walked down the aisle in a white gown and said yes. She talks about lovemaking and how even that was tradition.” Face up I bore not only my own weight but his as well on top of mine. The classical posture for lovemaking. The classical moan. Myths, myths.” (pg 44) She is only a newlywed but is now imagining her future and what she has given up. She will have to “keep the house impeccable, the clothing clean, the rhythm of mealtime infallible. But I’m not paid a salary, have no day off, can’t switch employers.” She realizes that her life will never be what it was before. Her husband will see and treat her differently; she is now “his property.” As she continues to imagine her future she wonders what it would be with a different role, “For my next film I would like a different part” (pg 48) Although this story refers to a piece of meat and the transformation it takes from being frozen to thawed, cooked, burned and maybe destroyed, she is picturing her own life that way. She has lost her identity, her name is not even her own. She realizes “The meat hasn’t disappeared. It has merely suffered a series of metamorphoses” and compares this to her life. She knows at this point that then decision is hers as to how her life will be. She can play the role expected of her or decide her own future.
In Park Cinema we see again how women are viewed to have expected behavior. The admirer in this story has very clear-cut ideas on how the actress should behave. This deranged man claims to be devoted to her, devoted to an image as he sees it. He does not seem to understand that this is only theater; he believes all he is seeing on the screen. He writes about a scene where he watched her “swoon in the arms of that abominable suitor who dragged you to the final extremes of human degradation.” (p171) He imagines her feelings towards him but claims “It is I who is judging you, and do me the favor of taking greater responsibility for your actions, and therefore before you sign a contract or accept a co-star. Do consider ...
