Belonging - Peter Skrzynecki (1 Viewer)

[Jascott26]

Does anyone have any evidence of "With belonging comes security" or "Belonging defines who you are" using techniques and quotes, within Peter Skrzynecki's poems; 'Felikz Skrzynecki', 'Post Card' and '10 Mary Street'; and my supplementary text, "The Perks of being a Wallflower" (book) ?
Would be muchly appreciated, thankyou

I don't have much time, but quickly, you could talk about how the home at 10 Mary St offers security - "like a well oiled lock" - simile or the familial security/connection in Feliks - "my gentle father" - inclusive language.

Thankyou, very much!

In terms of The Perks of Being a Wallflower, you could use evidence including the way he acts and feels around his friends. His greatest struggles with psychological problems seem to come about when he's in a vulnerable place (friend committed suicide, over the Christmas period when Sam/Patrick are away and issues of Aunt Helen's death are particularly present, when Sam is about to leave for an extended period). Belonging to a friendship group gives him a sense of security and psychological stability.
