IMWAYR- 13/06/2016

Hey everyone, I'm back with another IMWAYR* post. By the time you read this post, I'll be away on a school conference, so this post may not be completely up to date. Anyway, here we go!

I finished reading " Sad Cypress" by Agatha Christie. It's a Hercule Poirot novel, and I really enjoyed it. I loved the plot and the characters, however I feel that Poirot wasn't in the story for too long. Look out for a review of this book soon!
 I'm also currently reading "Lord Edgware Dies" by Agatha Christie. I recently went to the bookstore and picked up these two Agatha Christie's, so I'm devouring them up as fast as I can.
 I'm currently reading "Almost French" by Sarah Turnbull. I hope to finish that soon. It's going alright so far, but I can't say I'm loving it.

I did quite well with the blog last week, I've uploaded every day! Well- as I'm writing this, some of these posts haven't yet been uploaded, but I've written them all and they're scheduled to upload this week!
Blog Posts Last Week:
- Inferno by Dan Brown (Review)

The Hero, by Rabindranath Tagore

 The narrative poem" The Hero" was written by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. Set in a young boy's imaginations this narrative has all the necessary elements and is rich in imagery. The characters, plot, setting, theme, climax and idea are all very clearly outlined.  The setting of the poem falls within the boy's imagination. It is described to have 'spiky grass' and a 'narrow broken path'. It is also mentioned that the country is 'strange and dangerous'. The rurality of the setting is further accentuated when Tagore talks of the 'cattle' and 'wide fields'.

One by Shawnee Kellie

  The poem "One" by Shawnee Kellie is a very interesting and thought-provoking piece of writing. The poem spreads the message that it is not only a large group of people that can make a change, but one idea, one thought, one human that can help make the world a better place.

Coromandel Fishers by Sarojini Naidu

Hello! For this post I will be exploring another poem written by Sarojini Naidu, called "Coromandel Fishers". This poem can be taken as an allegory, for although it speaks to fishermen, it's metaphoric value speaks to the nation, and can be considered a wakening call for the people of our country. When I wrote about "In the Bazaars of Hyderabad", I mentioned that Sarojini Naidu was one of our freedom fighters, and believed greatly in the Swadeshi movement. Naidu reflects her passion for India in this poem.
