Books & Authors - January 2007

I saw this story on HBO a few years ago. They told the story and had illustrations to show what was going on. It was about this guy who pretty much wandered around and got into adventures. The main part of the story was that, this guy aquired a bag that could hold anything, and he also got this special water that would heal anything. And this guy captured death in his bag, and started to go around healing people. and in the end he let death go because he realized people need to die. But death never came back to take him because it's scared to be captured again....

Can anyone help me figure this out I've looked all over the place.

Ballad ofBrimingham

I'm writing an analysis for this, but I can't find the thesis. I also have some problems with it.

1.Is this poem about a war, so the mother doesn't want her daughter to go out? I think it is because the "explosion"
2. What's the thesis of this poem ??
3. Why does the mother go to the street of Birmingham to look for her daughter? Didn't the daughter go to the church?

Thanks for helping me

Everyone knows that either Harry or Voldimort will die in the next book. Who do think should die? Who would you like to see die?
Wouldn't it be interesting to see the main character die, just for the heck of it? I think it would be Cool? U?

Is it just me, or is the middle sister, Mary, practically nonexistant? Why is that? And for that matter? Why even put her into the book?

I started writing this story last june. I now have about 74 typed pages on my computer and as of yet it remains to not grow. As I am a freshman in high school I doubt that it may ever get published, but for my own sake (and my friends who bug me for more inceasently) I would very much like to finish. Any suggestions?

Hi everyone,

I want to find good non-fiction books to read such as business book or sel-fhelp. I find that crusing around bookstores does not help much because there are too many books available. Best-seller picks does not help either, i bought some best seller and they turn out to be suck. Does any one know website that have book review or book recomandation or something like that? Or any forum discuss about book? Thank you alot for your help

Whenever I rewrite my manuscript, I feel like I'm just rearranging the words a little, and there's no real improvment. And whenever I read it over agian, it seems to just jump from one action sequence to another.

Any hints, tips, or websites with info?

Thanks very much.
