Enchanted |
Throughout the novel there was a paragraph that
seemed particularly fairy-tale like. "We walked through a
light hallway into a bright rosy colored space, fragilely bound into the
house by French window sat either end. The widows were ajar and
gleaming white against the fresh grass outside that seemed to grow a
little way into the house. A breeze blew through the room, blew
curtains in at one end and out the other like pale flags, twisting them
up toward the frosted wedding cake of the ceiling-and then rippled over
the wine-colored rug, making a shadow on it as wind does on the
sea." (pg.12)
Fitzgerald's descriptions could often take you to another time and place. Fitzgerald's writing was enchanting and this theme carries throughout the whole book. The pure feeling and raw emotion is shown in most chapters of the book and there is a lot to be uncovered in the novel. -Patria Lincoln |
