Poem/Book
I have chosen the poem "The Jungle Husband" to write my paper on and I have decided to use the book The Lovely Bones to compare and dissect the poem with. Both works of literature have to do with family relationships. The book discusses how a family deals with the death of their young daughter and sister while the poem is about a husband and wife who are not physically together but still married. In addition to dealing with relationships in unordinary times or times of distraught the poem and book both have parallel universes or worlds. In "The Jungle Husband", the jungle and the real world are mirrored together while in The Lovely Bones, we see characters different perspectives from Earth and Heaven.
