Raymond Carver's "Call Me If You Need Me": Why People Act The Way They Do
[ send me this essay ]
6 pages in length. Because socialization sets the groundwork for appropriate social behavior, its existence is critical for a person's overall development. Without such, people would not be able to function in or participate with the rest of society. By passing down these socializing attributes from generation to generation, it ensures the continuation of a civilized society, which is obtained on a daily basis through family, school and peer groups. Raymond Carver's "Call Me If You Need Me" addresses these cultural characteristics as they relate to human behavior; by associating works of Sigmund Freud, one can readily surmise the relationship that exists between Carver's story and basic human interaction. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

[ send me this essay ]
This 5 page report discusses Raymond Carver’s very short story of “My Father’s Life.” Carver makes very little judgment about either his actions or those of his father. Instead, he leaves it up to the individual reader to make a generalization based on the clues he offers. What the reader ends up seeing is the life of a man that foreshadowed the life of his son. Alcoholism, mental illness, and despair were just some of what the father and son had in common. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Raymond Carver/"Little Things" and "Mine"
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that contrasts and compares 2 versions of the same short story. In 1977, in his short story collection Furious Seasons, Raymond Carver included a story entitled "Mine," which he subsequently revised, with the revised and re-titled version, "Little Things" appearing in his 1989 collection, Where I'm Calling From. The two stories are virtually identical; however, comparing them reveals the logic of Carver's revision choices and it then becomes evident that the newer version, "Little Things," is the more compelling and dramatic narrative.
