        <description><![CDATA[Sorry, I cannot help you that much on the second text as I am not that familiar with it. What I would say would primarily be about Joyce's A Portrait and the ideas of exile in general.
In Joyce and a host of other Modernist writers like Beckett, Genet, Ionesco, Rhys etc, expatriate experience is a key factors. The legacy continues in the post-colonial world with linguistic exiles like Kundera and Raymond Federman who stay in Paris and write in...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Exile is a form of displacement, physical or mental; it is almost always personal. This means being in exile results from a person alienating and/or isolating himself or herself, from his/her society. It is true that some people are exiled from their countries (such as the Nigerian novelist Buchi Emecheta whose passport was confiscated by Nigeria because she wrote "feminist" novels), but that is very rare, especially these days.
So, in this...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Inasmuch as McCourt depicts America the land of hope and opportunity in 'Tis, he describes Ireland (through his personal circumstances, mind you) as a kind of no man's land of loss and despair in Angela's Ashes. The phantoms of his past, however, follow his trail to New York, where at first he also meets with disappointment and failure before working his way to relative success.
Despite his candor, McCourt does not seem to be embittered by his...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Frank catches typhoid fever and ends up in the hospital.  He has his own room, and very few visitors.  While there, the girl in the room next door begins talking to him through the wall.  She is Patricia Morgan, a very forward and stubborn young lady - also, incidentally, a very sick one.  She insists on talking to Frank, even after the nuns warn them both to keep quiet. 
Seamus, the janitor, brings books for the kids, and Patricia...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Frank McCourt suffered from typhoid fever.  A portion of the autobiography, "Typhoid Fever," is often excerpted and anthologized.  In this excerpt, Frank's condition is discussed as well as his experience in a quarantined hospital.  He spends his time with a young girl who does not have typhoid fever but who suffers from diptheria and malaria.
Frank's illness, typhoid, still exists today, but not in such widespread variations.  Normally,...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The typical feature that Frank inherited from his father that sets him apart as a northerner according to his maternal grandmother is- his Presbyterian standing-up hair.  If your mother had married a proper decent Limerickman you wouldn’t have this standing up, North of Ireland Presbyterian hair.  She spat twice on my hair. (p142)  The way to make his standing-up hair to lie down was to use spit...further down you see him applying this...]]></description>
