I have studied three short stories during this half-term period. The three stories are “The Signalman” by Charles Dickens; “The Monkey’s Paw” by W. W. Jacobs and “The Withered Arm” by Thomas Hardy.

In Act 2 Scene 2 of the play Enobarbus refers to Cleopatra as having an “infinite variety”, this is conceivably in reference to her ever changing personality and her rapidly shifting moods.

Dear Jodi Picoult, I used to think being selfless meant giving out a compliment, giving my old clothes away, or maybe even volunteering to help decorate a dance after school, but after I read your book, My Sister’s Keeper, I knew that there was so much more I could do. Your characters were so inspiring. […]
In both Examination Day and The Star there is a futuristic theme. Both have a view on what the world will be like in the future. The two short stories are, however, written almost a century apart.
