Anna On The Go, Emma Burgess May 2025

Anna On The Go, Emma Burgess

Honors Theses

28-year-old Anna McCarthy, better known by her Instagram alias @Annaonthego, appears to have it all: the perfect man, flawless style, the job of her dreams, and a spot at the top of New York City’s cutthroat social ladder. With so much to flaunt, one would expect Anna to pounce at the opportunity to attend her ten year high school class reunion. Instead, the event’s invitation forces her to confront the fact that she may not be able to bury her dark past from her multitude of followers, and herself, forever.

Please note: This thesis is permanently restricted and not available.

Everyday Heroism And The Journey Of The Community In The Long Way To A Small, Angry Planet By Becky Chambers, Jari Käkelä Sep 2024

Everyday Heroism And The Journey Of The Community In The Long Way To A Small, Angry Planet By Becky Chambers, Jari Käkelä

Heroism Science

This article examines the impact of everyday heroism on community in the science fiction novel The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet (2014) by Becky Chambers. While science fiction often features superhuman action or scientist heroes and technocratic dystopian futures, Chambers’s novel represents the recent trend of hopepunk, which sets stories within mundane social interactions to imagine gradual positive change. Instead of its action-adventure potential, the narrative in Chambers’s novel focuses on the relationships between a multi-species crew of a spaceship, creating a heightened sense of the crew as a found family where individuals come to accept and support …
