Paper Summary:
This paper examines the use of language in these two novels. It also shows how, in both novels, the authors take a look at how human beings try to find a place to find meaning or safety in their lives or at least to momentarily keep from feeling so empty and alone that they try to commit suicide.From the Paper:
"The dialogue in both these stories is short and simple. It comes from the mouths of characters with little hope. The words do not actually state their underlying meaning, but the artistry of the authors gets their point across. What it means to say Phoenix, Arizona is, not much, next to nothing, zip, nada. It's only a place, something like a clean well lighted bar where one hides from fears of nothing only to find more of the same. "More papers on The Words of Nada:
