Victims of Stalin and Hitler: The Exodus of Poles and Balts to Britain
18
 
 
Victims of Stalin and Hitler: The Exodus of Poles and Balts to Britain There are a number of publications which describe the experiences of deportees in the Soviet Union, and a number which consider the culture and role of refugees from the Nazis in this country. There are none which connect the two. None, that is to say, which examine the experiences of the victims of Stalin and Hitler from the onset of the Second World War, when their countries were occupied, until the building of their communities in Britain after the war.

Faulkner's The Bear (Cliffs Notes)
20
 
 

Faulkner's The Bear (Cliffs Notes)"The Bear" by William Faulkner was an extreamly slow paced book. Many of the sentances ran on for two pages or so, and became incomprehensible. Faulkner seems to ramble on aimlessly, failing to reach distinct points. There were some good double meanings in the text, but if this is what you like, look at James Joyce. This was a failure.
