Bosom Buddies And Lonely Hearts, Daryl Cumber Dance
Bosom Buddies And Lonely Hearts, Daryl Cumber Dance
English Faculty Publications
In Ossie Davis' Purlie Victorius, Ol' Cap'n nostalgically reminisces about the good old days when he enjoyed what he recollects as close loving relationships with Blacks. He recalls to Gitlow "how you and me growed up together. Had the same mammy - my mammy was your mother." And Gitlow responds, "Yessir! Bosom buddies."

Masters Theses
The problem of time is a central concern in John Cheever's short story collection The Housebreaker of Shady Hill.

In trying to come to grips with their time and space, many of Cheever's characters express an immoderate devotion to their past, present, or future and neglect to see the bits and pieces of their experiences as interrelated.

"Training" And Twain's Discovery Of Its Role In His Major Novels, Gary Dale Ervin
Masters Theses
