Show moreAutumn is a short story cycle set in contemporary times, primarily in a South Florida village, using the viewpoints of two main characters: Angie Frisby and Chatov Faulke. It offers an example of the short story cycle through repeated and developed characters, recurring themes, imagery, setting, and shifting points of view. It will employ closure strategies that present an image of the future for both Angie and Chat, implying continuation of the story and/or characters, and how they might go down a multiplicity of different roads. In its desire to remain ambiguous, the conflicts surrounding Angie's and Chat's relationship will never fully be solved, just presented accurately through their perception; an antithesis will be created through their ongoing thoughts of present conflict and juxtaposition of life and death, separation and reunion, the harmony of the natural world and the disharmony of their internal ones.

Show moreMargherita Luti, the daughter of a hard-working but nai've baker, Francesco Luti, discovers her potential in La Panetteria da Francesco as she hones her craft of breadmaking, while also adding cakes and other dolces to her repertoire. Her simple life takes great turns as Margherita learns about new passions of hers: dolce, art, and love. After colliding with Raphael Sanzio, one of Rome's most prominent painters, she disguises herself as one of the elite and begins to live a life unknown and drastically contrary to the lifestyle she had always had. Set in the backdrop of Renaissance Italy, Rita soon opens the gates to her own inhibited desires as wells as confronting the expectations of her class and her role as a woman. Margherita and Raphael will have to decide whether or not their love for each other is greater than the social challenges they must face.

Abstract/Description
-
This poetic thesis is an exploration of the darker side of relationships. There are two parts of this thesis and they are to be read independently of each other. Part one is concerned with the chaotic relationship structure between lovers, husbands and wives, and the unexpected anguish that results from living an inauthentic life. Part two of my thesis is a rumination of a past close friendship and the tragic death of that friend.
