Non-standard English Essay John Agard, to get his point across about half-caste, he uses images to point other well-known mixtures of half-caste:  yu mean when Picasso  mix red an green  is a half-case canvas/  this is one of his interpretation of well known mixtures which people of society welcome with open arms, then why is there a voice of prejudice when a there is a person who belongs to two races. Agard takes a bitter, angry and frustrating tone to match his feeling of being a victim. The presentational device used for this poem is formal: it has rhythm and rhyme. The rhyme scheme used is not expected, as the poem is written in a form of prejudice.  The use of sarcasm and mocking tone:  Excuse me  standing on one leg  Im half-caste  The author here wants attention, and introduces the subject of half-caste. Then the author goes on to demanding an explanation to why people are objective towards those who are half-caste, they seem to have no objections for any other object but humans. After they get married, they move to Canada where Hemingways son is born. When he finds himself unhappy, he divorces Hadley and moves to Paris where he meets and marries Pauline Pfeiffer, after a short period of time, he divorces her and marries Mary Welsh in Havana. In 1953 he goes to a safari in Africa and has a serious accident, which leaves him ill for the rest of his days. At his last home in Ketchum, Idaho, on a Sunday morning on July 2, 1961, Ernest Miller Hemingway commits suicide. The author shows all the main conflicts that Hemingway goes through. I wonder how he knew such personal details about Hemingways life knowing that he was always a very private person. It is shown how Ernest is always treated by as a baby by his mom and how he never forgives her for his humiliation. When he was in high school he would sometimes get in trouble for using forbidden words in the school paper. He would do this just to create a ruckus. The author lets us know how Hemingways heart is broken when a nurse he falls in love with, rejects him for another man. He also lets us see that Ernest is a very insensitive person when he leaves his wife and son for another woman, and this one for his third, and then finally fourth wife. This shows how unstable Ernest is. He becomes so unstable that he takes his own life when he cant handle all his problems. Burgess apparently wants the public to see how Hemingway lived an adventurous life and even though he always looked and acted very manly, he had a very confusing life and this probably explains why he didnt fear death, especially his own. He also compares how Ernest takes much of his storyline from his novel, A Farewell to Arms, from his personal experiences. The main character of the book experiences many of the same situations Hemingway faced. Some of these similarities are exact while some are less similar, and some events have a completely different outcome. I think that Anthony Burgess does a good job in this biography because he lets the public see all the details of Ernest Hemingways success and failures. I liked reading about Hemingways life because it was very interesting and I wouldnt mind reading one of his famous books like A Farewell to Arms or Death in the Afternoon.
