Hisham Matar was born in New York in 1970 to Libyan parents. His father worked for the Libyan mission to the United Nations. But in 1979 being against the regime, he left Libya and went into exile in Egypt with his family. After living in Cairo for eleven years, his father was kidnapped and sent back to Libya where he was sent to prison and since 1995 Hisham Matar has no news of his father's whereabouts. His mother and elder brother still live in Egypt.
Hisham Matar spent his young years in Tripoli and Cairo. He lived in Cairo for four years, and at fifteen went to boarding school in England. Then he studied architecture at Goldsmith college London University and still lives in London, married to American photographer, Diana Matar. He is working on a new novel set in Cairo and London.
In his twenties Hisham Matar worked as an architect and also wrote articles for the London based Arabic daily newspaper, Al Shark Al Awsat. His essays have been published in The Independent, The New York Times, The Guardian and The Times. In 2002 he was a finalist in East Anglia's Best New Talent Awards for his poems, before preferring prose to poetry.
Hisham Matar's first novel In the Country of Men was first published in 2006 and was nominated for The Guardian First Book Award. It was on the short list of The Booker Prize of 2006 and won The Commonwealth Writers Prize in 2007. "In The Country of Men" was a big success and has been translated into 22 languages. Despite its short length it took five years to write.
The novel is narrated by a bewildered nine year-old Suleiman who is trying to decode the adult world that takes place inside his own family and in Tripoli, ten years after the 1969 Libyan revolution. The book starts in 1979, the year before he left Tripoli to go and live in Cairo.
Little Suleiman is confused as would be a nine year old who lives with a depressed, domineering, alcoholic and emotionally unpredictable mother (Mama), a nearly non-existent figure-head of a businessman father (Baba), and suspicious men (the secret police) moving around Tripoli and his neighbourhood.
Apart from Suleiman's mother, the main character in the story who plays an important part in Suleimen's life, the story is mainly about men, as the title of the novel suggests. The novel is not only about politics, it's also about strong emotions, compassions and relationships between people sharing almost the same fate.
The story is poignant. Suleiman who at his age should be living a carefree life, is burdened by the cruel events surrounding him. Like nine year old Michele in "I'm Not Scared" by Niccolo Ammaniti and twelve year old Amir in "The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini, he is ejected too soon into adulthood due to circumstances and without any mercy.
Throughout the novel there is a sense of danger, fear, betrayal, and a very heavy atmosphere of oppression, that the nine-year old child caught in this claustrophobic world would rather not even attempt to decipher but instead escape to a freer place.
Nevertheless, the story is evoked with great subtlety and compassion. "In The Country of Men" is an interesting novel because it's about Libya, a country which has encountered many world-wide controversies in recent years and yet remains completely unknown to the outsider.
The characters in the novel are not fully developed but rather sketched apart from the character of Suleimen's mother who stands out vividly among the other hazy characters, emphasising the endearing love binding the little boy to his mother, love that will remain just as strong even when the little boy becomes a young man in exile in Egypt.

Leadership change at Metrolink; no fare increase or service cuts made
by Steve Hymon , December 11, 2009
The commuter railroad Metrolink — which is funded in part by Metro — announced Friday that David Solow was being replaced as chief executive and that Solow was moving to another position overseeing implementation of a new safety system for the agency.
The official press release from Metrolink is after the jump. Here's a link to a story posted within the hour at the L.A. Times' website.
As for the fare increase and/or service cuts that the Metrolink Board of Directors was considering, the agency's press office released this:
The SCRRA board took no action on staff recommendations related to potential service cuts or fare increases. Instead, the board approved a motion by L.A. County Supervisor Don Knabe, and seconded by Montclair Mayor Paul Eaton, to not impose a fare increase at this time and to initiate the FY 10-11 budget process in January, 2010. The SCRRA board will reconvene its regular board meeting on January 8, 2010.
Metrolink's press release:
LOS ANGELES, CA December 11, 2009: After a closed session personnel discussion amongst the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board of the Southern California Regional Rail Authority Keith Millhouse announced that Metrolink CEO David Solow will change his role at the agency effective December 15, 2009.
The Board of Directors and Solow have agreed that he will step down as CEO and for the balance of this fiscal year, until June 30, 2010, he will remain with the agency devoting full time to the interagency collaborations necessary for Metrolink to implement safety enhancements, including Positive Train Control, and interoperability agreements.
"Metrolink has the opportunity to usher in the era of dramatic enhancements in rail travel in this region and in this country, such as Positive Train Control and the addition of High Speed Rail," said Millhouse. "With Mr. Solow's expertise focused on interagency collaboration, Metrolink has a unique ability to bring together public and private railroads to improve passenger safety and service in our complex railroad operating environment."
Mr. Solow's expertise and experience in the interagency operations issues facing commuter rail are widely acknowledged and respected. The Board is appointing him to a new position of "Advisor: Interagency Initiatives," which reports to the Chief Executive Officer. He will be working pursuant to an at will contract through this fiscal year at his current salary.
To lead the agency into this new era of commuter rail, the Board will immediately begin the recruitment of a successor Chief Executive Officer.
In the interim, the Board is fortunate to be able to name as Chief Executive Officer Mr. Eric Haley effective December 15, 2009.
Mr. Haley will be working under an at will contract as Metrolink's Chief Executive Officer until the arrival of a new CEO, but for not more than six months. He brings a wealth of experience to this position from both the public and private sectors and is very familiar with Metrolink and its member agencies based on his experience as the former CEO of the Riverside County Transportation Commission, a Metrolink member agency.
Both Mr. Solow and Mr. Haley are looking forward to working with each other and for Metrolink in their new roles.
"Because I remain dedicated to our top priority of enhancing safety and leading in the development and implementation of new technology, I am pleased to be able to continue this aspect of the work that I have begun," said Solow. "I look forward to a smooth transition with Eric and the Metrolink team."
"I would like to thank the Board for this opportunity as a capstone of my career. We face tremendous budget challenges and simultaneously have a plan to continue expansion, which David began," said Haley. "David's recognized expertise in Positive Train Control will be crucial because safety is the top concern. We are fortunate to have the benefit of David's experience as Metrolink moves forward with industry leading safety upgrades."
The Board has authorized a two member ad hoc committee to negotiate final contract terms with both Solow and Haley. When final, the contracts will be available on request consistent with the applicable law.
One of Mr. Haley's priorities will be to direct the Board's search for the new CEO to lead Metrolink to being this nation's premier commuter railroad. The Board anticipates hiring a CEO within the first half of 2010. Mr. Haley has agreed that he is not a candidate for the new CEO position.

*One-off Promotion for May Only
I have been delighted by the response of readers to my first novel Niedermayer & Hart which has been clocking up praise on Amazon and Goodreads. As an independent author, it's extremely gratifying when people from as far afield as Australia's Gold Coast or Oklahoma, who have somehow discovered your book, choose to post a review. And fortunately, so far at least, I am delighted to say these have all been extremely positive.
Roadrage is a very different kind of book to Niedermayer & Hart. If I was asked to give a 'smart description', I'd say it's a psychological thriller that examines the corrosive effect of obsession and hate. However, what it definitely has in common with Niedermayer & Hart (at least is meant to have!) is that it's a page-turner - just without any supernatural shenanigans.
It is now possible to place a pre-order for Roadrage through Odd Dog Press or via the To Buy page on this site using PayPal.
*Also, but only available during the month of May, Odd Dog Press is offering an opportunity to get both printed versions of Niedermayer & Hart (£12.99) and Roadrage (£12.99) at a one-off promotional combined price of £18 (a saving of £7.98 - with p&p incl). Unfortunately, this offer is available to UK mainland purchasers only.
Roadrage by M J Johnson
Roadrage is a psychological thriller. The book is set largely in West Kent, on the fringe of the London commuter belt but concludes on the rugged coastline of West Wales. Its main protagonist, Gil Harper, is a successful book illustrator who has collaborated for nearly two decades with one of the world's leading children's authors. Despite enjoying an outwardly comfortable existence, Gil has become rather withdrawn since he lost his wife in an accident five years prior to the book's opening. His closest friends have long been concerned for his wellbeing, and are delighted when they learn he has recently met someone new.
At the start of Roadrage, Gil is driving home during a public holiday in atrocious rain. He and his dog, Spike, seem to have the road entirely to themselves. Then, in his rear-view mirror he spies the headlights of another car approaching fast ...
Roadrage is out 3 June, available in trade paperback and e-book versions.

Archaeology in Bulgaria: Odessos (Varna)
Odessos was founded by Ionian Greek colonists from Miletus during the years 585–550 BC. The Greeks established their colony on the site of a Thracian settlement with the same name. Both Greeks and Thracians coexisted peacefully in the colony and in its vicinity, and there is strong evidence of bilateral trade relations and cultural interaction. Odessos was governed by the Boule (City Council) and Demos (Assembly). A monumental Doric temple was built during the second half of the 6th century BC. However, until the middle of the 4th century BC, Odessos remained a relatively small town, although its port was quite important for maintaining trade relations between the ancient Greeks and the Thracians. The first fortification wall was built around the middle of the 4th century BC, and the

ARCHAEOLOGY IN BULGARIA: PHILIPPOPOLIS (PLOVDIV)
The earliest traces of human occupation in present-day Plovdiv date back to the Neolithic period in the 6th millennium BC. Later on, during the 1st millennium BC the area was occupied by the Thracians. According to some Greek sources, the name of the Thracian town that existed on that place was Eumolpia, after the name of Eumolpos, a mythical Thracian king. In 342 BC, the Thracian town was conquered by Philip of Macedon who reconstructed and enlarged the urban area, built monumental fortification walls, settled a Macedonian military garrison there and renamed the settlement to Philippopolis, or "the Town of Philip" in his own honor. The local Thracians called the town Pulpudeva, which was the Thracian translation of Philipopolis, a name later inherited by the Bulgars in the Early

ARCHAEOLOGY IN BULGARIA: FROM THE END OF THE 19th CENTURY UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD WAR II
In the late 19th century, several local archaeological societies were founded in different Bulgarian towns and in 1901 the Bulgarian Archaeological Society was established, immediately becoming an important center of the archaeological studies that further strengthened the institutional backbone of the Bulgarian archaeology. After the liberation from the Ottoman Empire, there was a significant interest in the mediaeval archaeology of the First and the Second Bulgarian Kingdoms, given that the new Principality of Bulgaria was considered as their political successor. Thus, in the 1880s archaeological excavations were carried out in Veliko Tarnovo, the last mediaeval Bulgarian capital, and in 1899 – 1900 excavations in Pliska, the first mediaeval Bulgarian capital, were launched by Karel Škorpil. In that period the interest of the foreign scholars in the Bulgarian archaeology

ARCHAEOLOGY IN BULGARIA: THE BEGINNINGS AND THE EARLY PIONEERS BEFORE THE 20th CENTURY
Almost every year Bulgarian archaeologists are making sensational discoveries which attract the attention not only of most Bulgarians, but also of international scholars and the public worldwide. People usually know only about the recent archaeological endeavors in Bulgaria, so in several consecutive articles I will try to present the entire exciting history of archaeology in Bulgaria, from its early beginnings up to the present day. Many readers would be surprised to learn that the first excavations in the Bulgarian lands occurred in the late 16th and 17th centuries, when Bulgaria was part of the Ottoman Empire and long before the study of the classical world became an actual academic discipline distinct from early modern European antiquarianism. The earliest record was given by Reinhold Lubenau, a German pharmacist and traveler

A program presented by Salon Sanctuary in collaboration with the Stephen Wise Free Synagogue and Centro Primo Levi. Pre-concert lecture by scholar Francesco Spagnolo, PhD, Curator of The Magnes
A program presented by Salon Sanctuary in collaboration with the Stephen Wise Free Synagogue and Centro Primo Levi. Pre-concert lecture by scholar Francesco Spagnolo, PhD, Curator of The Magnes Collection of Jewish Art & Life at the University of California, Berkeley, and a host for RAI Radiotre in Rome. Concert by the The Western Wind ensemble.
Salon/Sanctuary's program of works by the Jewish-Italian composer Salamone Rossi (c. 1570 – 1630) returns for a third season. Featuring liturgical works in Hebrew composed for the synagogue and secular Italian madrigals penned for the Gonzaga court, the program also includes compositions for the theatrical troupe of the Ghetto, enjoyed by Jews and Gentiles alike at the height of Counter-Reformation segregation.
Salamone Rossi (ca. 1570-1630) was a Jewish musician living in the ghetto of Mantua (Italy) and active in the earlier part of the 17th century as composer and performer at the court of the Gonzaga Dukes. With assistance from Rabbi Leon Modena (1671-1648), Rossi published a collection of new polyphonic compositions with Hebrew texts, aptly titled ha-shirim asher li-shelomoh (The Songs of Solomon, Venice 1622-23), which are a testament to the cultural symbiosis between Jews and Italians during the Renaissance.
Rossi's composition were rediscovered in Germany and Italy in the 19th century, and have since been hailed as an example of Jewish modernity and artistic creativity, becoming part of synagogue services and concert performances in the United States. Musicologist Francesco Spagnolo will offer a reassessment of Rossi's work in light of the general role of music and of Christian presences in the Italian synagogues during the modern era.
Founded in 2009 by Artistic Director Jessica Gould as an alternative to the conventional concert hall, Salon/Sanctuary Concerts presents performances of pre-Romantic music in intimate venues that complement the historical context of the repertoire. Many of our projects feature innovative programming that offers the opportunity to view history and various historical issues through the prism of music.

← A MOVEMENT THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IGNORES: DON'T MESS WITH MY CHILDREN!
Is "social justice" unjust? Unchristian? Some Christians clearly think so. Consider The Statement on Social Justice & the Gospel. Because the meaning of the expression "social justice" covers a lot of ground, refuting the concept must cover a similar amount of ground. Therefore, The Statement on Social Justice & the Gospel consists of: an Introduction, a series of Affirmations and Denials (which includes links to a couple of previous statements on social issues, the history of this document, a list of Signers, and Resources (explanatory articles).
Read The Statement on Social Justice & the Gospel carefully. Note the picture above. Whether we realize it or not, our public schools and the mass media are indoctrinating our children to be social justice warriors.
Read No Division in the Body by John MacAuthur. The articles in the Resources section are there for a reason.
Consider listening to or reading MacAuthur's sermons on the subject: Social Justice and the Gospel, Part 1 and Social Justice and the Gospel, Part 2.
Search the Internet and consider contrary views.
Examine the relationship between "social justice" and justice.
That last step is critical, but it is not easy. "Social justice" is an attractive, but vaguely defined concept. Here are a couple of definitions.
Effectively, what passes for "social justice" is social equality in terms of wealth, opportunities and privileges. If we are to achieve "social justice", shouldn't we consider what is involved first?
Should we all have the same amount of wealth, opportunities and privilege? Would that be just? Or do wealth, opportunities, and privileges belong to the people who strive to obtain wealth, opportunities, and privileges?
Who is to enforce "social justice"? Our government? Can we entrust politicians with the responsibility?
What do you want your children taught? Should the ideology of "social justice" be part of their curriculum?
The answers to these questions are not necessarily cut and dry. Since not everyone who has great wealth, opportunities, and privileges seems to have earned their blessings, it is easy for the have-nots to feel themselves righteously envious of the haves. It is also easy to be sympathetic of the have-nots, especially those who are desperately poor.
To achieve some objectivity — to set aside whatever personal guilt we might feel — we need to consider our children, our responsibility to them. What do we want our children to believe? What do we want them to do? Do we want our children to see life as an opportunity for personal service? Do we want our children to become loving and charitable individuals? Does "social justice" provide the right model?
What does belief in "social justice" produce? Does "social justice" produce charity as a personal act of giving or the government dole? Is "social justice" an act of love or an entitlement from government? Is being a social justice warrior the same as being a charitable, loving Christian following the example of Jesus Christ?
Do you have children? If you don't know what "social justice" is, please take the time to learn. If you don't teach your children about the concept, someone else will.

El antiguo edificio de la Facultad de Derecho (hoy Facultad de Filosofía y Ciencias de la Educación) está situado en la Avenida Blasco Ibáñez n.º 30 de la ciudad de Valencia (España). Fue construido en 1958 con proyecto del arquitecto Fernando Moreno Barberá.

Descripción
La facultad de Derecho está formada por distintas piezas que se despliegan ocupando los bordes de la parcela a modo de L, junto a dos vías de menor sección y buscan su propia relación con la alineación de la avenida Blasco Ibáñez, como ocurre en la mayoría de los edificios singulares recayentes a ésta. En este caso los edificios de aulas, biblioteca y aula magna, de dos alturas, responden a los viales secundarios y el edificio de seminarios (Departamentos), de gran escala con ocho alturas, y el bajo del edificio de aulas crean un espacio ajardinado previo, que enfatiza el espacio del zaguán, donde se sitúa la entrada del edificio bastante alejada de la alineación de la avenida.

El programa del edificio es docente y representativo que incluye en planta baja, vestíbulo, despachos y oficinas, archivos, sala de alumnos, cafetería y servicios. La planta primera es para aulas, incluida el Aula Magna, biblioteca, decanato, sala de juntas y profesores. El resto de plantas es para seminarios (Departamentos).

La estructura de los edificios es de hormigón armado, utilizando vigas metálicas para salvar las grandes luces. Las diferentes fachadas se resuelven con una total diversidad, atendiendo básicamente a factores de orientación. Para las fachadas norte se emplea un muro cortina de superficies acristaladas sujetadas con perfiles metálicos, mientras que en las caras soleadas se organiza un sistema de protección mediante brise-soleils de hormigón.

Respecto a la implantación del edificio, éste no se resuelve mediante una solución en bloque compacto, sino que existe una voluntad de jerarquización y de tratamiento de los espacios y de los programas: Con esta obra se experimenta una nueva manera de entender el paisaje urbano puesto que la edificación abierta se relaciona con el espacio público de la ciudad mediante zonas ajardinadas, anteponiéndolas incluso ante un paseo arbolado. Se trata de una arquitectura que se resuelve mediante piezas de diferentes escalas cuidadosamente articulados: los bloques bajos con fachadas a calles secundarias asumen la consideración de esta escala urbana, el bloque alto, con fachada al jardín y a la avenida, responde con su dimensión a esta amplitud perceptiva.

En el orden funcional, todas las unidades programáticas del edificio se refieren a un único punto de articulación que sirven de enlace de unas con otras. Es muy claro el esquema funcional, con la identificación de cada una de las piezas integrantes del conjunto con su función específica teniendo una escala adecuada: bloque bajo de aulas, bloque alto de departamentos, aula magna y biblioteca exentas. La funcionalización de los espacios sigue siendo eficaz, a pesar de que la actual masificación estudiantil ha desbordado por completo los planteamientos originales del proyecto.

Resulta muy innovador el tratamiento de las fachadas considerando las orientaciones y las cartas solares con el enunciado de soluciones y de materiales distintos según sean estos condicionantes. La formalización de las fachadas con la retícula de parasoles de hormigón y el juego de luces y sombras que crea, confiere una potente identidad formal a los edificios.

Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka Speaks on President Buhari's Clone Report
Prof. Wole Soyinka takes a swipe at Buhari over cloning rumours.
By Sebastiane Ebatamehi.
If you had thought that reports from Nigeria saying the real president of the country, Muhammadu Buhari is dead and the current ruler is a clone from Sudan named Jubril is mere talk meant for the pubs and newspaper stands, then think again because 1986 Nobel Laureate Prize for Literature award recipient and iconic playwright, Professor Wole Soyinka has spoken about the reports on the clone president.
You will recall that the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu had accused the president of being a clone and has continued to share reasons for his assertion through his social media handles.
Speaking to the audience at the 70th anniversary of human rights and worldwide reading for press freedom in memory of Jamal Khashoggi which was held at Freedom Park, Lagos, Professor Soyinka stressed on the need to take the issue of stolen identity serious.
Careful not to say whether he believed the clone reports or not, Professor Soyinka said:
"Recently, we have a situation in Nigeria and that is the issue of cloning President Muhammadu Buhari. We have people who have taken that issue seriously.

"These were people that one can never believe to accept such considering their level of intelligence.
"When Buhari went to Poland, I said what a coincidence because I hope while he was there, he will be able to sort-out his identity and there will be a report on the return of his identity.
"Poland appears to be the centre for Nigerians settlers with stolen identity."
You will recall that while in Poland recently, someone had asked the Nigerian president what his thoughts were on the cloning reports.
The president had responded by saying he was aware of the reports which began as a result of his long medical trip to the United kingdom earlier this year which lasted about three months.
The president assured those present that he was the real Buhari and that he would celebrate his birthday soon and would be even stronger.
Soyinka also used the opportunity to announce that there was someone in Poland who stole his identity, and upon discovery that his identity was being used in Poland, he visited the country and demanded that the page using his identity on Facebook be pulled down but to no avail.
He added, "But he (operator of the business) refused, claiming that he has authority to do that. In my name, this fellow sells and buys things which I don't even use."
"If we must fight for freedom of expression, we must fight for the correct attribution of expression.
"If the doctrine of freedom of expression was to be reversed, there will be certainly a number of issues to be addressed because expression on social media has taken a quantum leave in the last few years that cannot be imagined."

Coming Of Age: The Rebellion Against Authority English 2 Literature Essay
Balsalobre 1
Brenda Balsalobre
Professor Dossett
Our society constructed in a way that expects men and women to comfort certain social roles creating gender inequalities. This creates controversy between male and females around the world and uncertainty while growing up. These values and rules have been passed from the older generations to the newer generations creating a self-fulfilling prophecy of what the role of male and female should be in our society and other societies in the world. Today, even though people have tried to equalize the roles of male and female, we still have the same issue which creates confusion and frustration within the newer generations as they often feel obligated to follow certain patterns and morals created by the society we live, to be accepted and consider "normal." I remember that when I was a child, I was gender socialized by my parents. The thought me about "the way" a girl should behave and the norms and values that I needed to follow to be accepted and admired by society. This issue created a conflict within myself because it was challenging for me to understand who I was and how to balance "the self" with what is considering to be normal and acceptable. In the stories about coming of age "Boys and Girls" by Alice Munro and "A & P" by John Updike, the authors portray and support the theme: The rebellion against authority that expects people to conform to the rules and values of the older generations and society.
In the Story "Boys and Girls" Munro's theme implies the rebellion against authority and the rules and values that have been passed from the older generations and society which also closely relates to the story "A & P" as Updike portraits the same theme through the story. "Boys and Girls" is narrated from the first-person point of view and tells a coming of age story in which the narrator recalls her life as a kid. She lives in Canada in the mid 20th century with her family on a fox farm, and different gender roles characterize her life. In this story, she portraits the struggle against society's idea of how a girl should be and behave finding herself trapped in the ways of the world. In a relationship with "A & P," the story is also narrated from the first-person point of view. The narrator is Sammy, a 19-year-old cashier at the A & P store. In the story, Sammy also seems to struggle in the modern world's society as he works in a store and is expected to behave in a certain way that conforms authority and society. These give us an idea of how closely related these stories are. In fact, in the story "Boys and Girls" Munro uses several traditional symbols. For example, the horses representing freedom and independence with which the girl identifies but at the same time this feeling is killed because the "inside" domestic world is stifling while the "outside" world of nature is harsh. Munro's tone is ironic. At first, the narrator has dreams about heroism and action. Then, the daydreams show her as a passive beneficiary of someone else's heroism. These differing fantasy roles Illustrate the strict split between genders. Also, the repetition of the phrase "only a girl," illustrates society puts a creative and energetic girl firmly in her place. When she gets to the description of "a hot dark kitchen in the summer," creates an illusion of sound and imagery. This scene shows that the narrator feels trapped in a cage by tasks performed by a female that almost seems like that is her obligation. However, this conflicts tremendously with the freedom she feels when she is out doing work around the yard, what most would be considered as a man's job. The girl tells her story but leaves many incidents to readers' interpretation. She begins by saying her hatred of housework and her happiness when helping her father but interrupt this with: "I have forgotten to say what the horses were feed." This strategy shows the girls ambivalence about her father's work; omitting this important detail allows her to relate to the story about killing Mack. The point of view is that of an adult looking back on her youth, trying to understand the events whose meaning eluded her at the time. She tries to analyze the reasons for her behavior but admits that she cannot understand why, for example, she disobeyed her father because it seemed like the only choice at the time. Besides, the author uses letting Flora scape out of the gate as a metaphor that implies that the narrator feels trapped in a traditional stereotypical role as a female who is expected to do what she is told. In Fact, by allowing the horse to scape is used to symbolize the narrator 's female roles forced upon her. Therefore, she shows rebel behavior against the civilized world but is impossible to scape, however. This illustrates how the expectations of society affect our identity and behavior and lead to rebellion. I also noticed that the narrator is anonymous, and I have concluded that the reason why the narrator appears without a name through the entire story is that she is soul searching and she does not know who she is. I believe that this story is closely related to "A & P" and also share a similar theme and meaning. For example, in the story "A & P," Sammy also tries to be a hero, only to realize that heroes do not get very fair in the modern world. In other words, those who tried to go against the norms and values of society are harshly judged, prejudicated and punished. This story contains strong examples of symbolism that relate to "Boys and Girls." The clothes wormed by the characters is an amazing place to start. I would assume that the clothes wormed by most of Sammy's clients identify them as normal boring people dressing for the right place and the right occasion (the ideal society). The three girls that walk into the establishment caught Sammy's attention immediately because they are not wearing the adequate A & P dress code (attire). In fact, the girls are wearing bathing suits to a grocery store which seems to be the complete opposite considering that the store is not necessary right next to the beach. The bathing suits symbolize their youth and energy. In a relationship with "Boys' and Girls,'' it also symbolizes a way to break the rules and rebel against authority and its norms and values. This is what causes the management of the establishment to reprimand the girls from entering the store in bathing suits. Therefore, they are exciting to Sammy's eyes because they seem different and fearless compared to the regular costumers of the store. Besides, due to the management actions, he decides to be heroic and rebel against social norms as well. The clothes as a symbol is essential when it comes to understanding Sammy. He is an employee of the store and needs to represent the business with the uniform and look like an employee of the establishment. In fact, he wears his apron to be recognized as a worker of the store. That is why it seems like a huge deal when he decides to remove the attire (apron). "I pull the bow at the back of my apron and start shrugging it off my shoulders. A couple of costumes that had been heading for my slot being to knock against each other, like scared pigs in a chute." This means that Sammy is quitting his job, and this represents the heroic act because he quits as a product of the manager's negative behavior towards the girls. The act of taking off the apron makes his actions quite concrete and visible. This relates to "Boys and Girls" when the narrator frees the horse named Flora. The act is so strong and symbolic because Sammy taking off his apron is a symbol for growing up and maturing. Also, the act of untying the apron is a symbol of freedom, rebellion and escape from the norms and values of society. In other words, before, the apron was a symbol of his attachment to authority. By removing the apron, Sammy is metaphorically "untying the apron strings" and growing up and standing up for what he believes should be right. He does not care about people think anymore, even though he recognizes that his parents will be very upset about his actions. But, then again, he decides to act against those who control him like the store manager.
So, the narrators of both stories represent the rebellion against authority that expects them to comfort the rules and values of older generations and society especially in the process of growing and becoming an adult. However, I have noticed that in the story "Boys and Girls" the struggle of gender inequalities between men and woman is also portrayed and the confusion and frustration that a girl experiences while growing up due to these norms and values. Besides, another difference I found between the stories is that in "A & P" Sammy can take actions for himself and leave that harsh world at the store. However, in "Boys and Girls" the narrator takes actions through a horse named Flora. She is never able to escape herself or quit the norms and values of her conflicted world. In other words, she uses Flora as a device of escape and rebellion against her father but is not able to physically escape herself. Most people are used to conform to the rules and values of the older generations and society. Nevertheless, if we act and become more "deviant" like Sammy and the narrator of "Boys and Girls" did; we could change these norms and values as we go against the odds, creating a less confusing, a less oppressive, and more equal society for future generations.
