The author Jane Yolen said, “Literature is a textually transmitted disease, normally contracted in childhood.” This disease she referenced I never seemed to contract. My experiences with literature, both reading, and writing, have been dull, to say the least. There was never anything that stuck out to me or had a changing impact on my perception of literature. Literature was a job that I had to show up to and pay attention to when I was told This was true until I began reading a biography about one of my favorite artists. It was a book about Selena, who's full name is Selena Quintanilla Perez, and was written by her husband, Chris Perez.

In the film Romasanta, the werewolf Manuel Romasanta had some similarities to the werewolf Peeter Stubbe. In the film, Manuel would kill men, women and even children but he mainly targeted women. Peeter Stubbe main target were women and children, “he had murdered thirteen young children, and two goodly young women big with child” (pp.15).

Lastly, both werewolves would sleep with their victims before murdering them. Manuel would seduce his victims by killing off their husbands and writing letters stating that

That’s not even your name you lied to me. You disgust me. When I get my daughter back you’ll never see her again, you’re pathetic.” Then after that he left her where she was and ignored her for the remainder of time their daughter was gone. This goes back to her trying to get over ever bad thing that happens to her.

She didn’t want to be the person she was in the

A murder in itself is a last resort that a man can turn to when walking down the path of revenge. What drives a man to a path that leads him to end the life of another? Even though no reason is justifiable for that action, one would believe the motive behind it would have been extraordinary. However, Montressor, who is depicted as a perfect killer, is uncertain of the very motive that led him to carry out such deliberate murder. “THE thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult, I vowed revenge”(Poe 1). Montressor never species any reason other than the ambiguous “thousand injuries” and “when he ventured
