"The Waste Land"
When we did the activity base on to look at the picture and connect it to one of the titles of the story of “wasteland”, the first headline that came to my mind was “The Burial of the Death”। I have always seen and experimented that people when want to forget something, they through it away (metaphorically) Where do they things go? The picture is the answer. The photograph is full of rubbish, for me! Nevertheless, for a person who this garbage belonged to, that is the death of a memory that probably hurt them much and which one they do not want to continuous living. Papers are the symbols of remembers. The image shows us the cemetery but this time not of death people. This is a cemetery where things that are truly important such as time, love, pace, etc are buried and they were left behind by the time people decided to get into this city and live like a robot and forgetting that they are part of human kind and not of a Factory.

To understand the story of Elizabeth, it is necessary to realize the damage that alcohol does within a family. The fact to see the love of your life being destroyed, it is something very difficult to live with. Probably this is the reason why she felt her husband like a strange in her life.

However, the hopes come to her in the moment of his husband's dead. there she see the beautifulness of life again, a reasonable thought, having in mind that this drunk man was the obstacle and the heavy bag that she has to carry every day. The thing is how do not feel the same as Elizabeth when you are living with a man that he only does is to bring sadness and pity?
