The majority of literature courses at the high-school level (and college, for that matter) are one semester in length, which makes it difficult to teach a novel. When curricula calls for the instructor to cover a certain number of authors and/or literary movements in a given course, devoting several weeks to one book is often impractical, if not impossible. Furthermore, the reluctancy of young readers to tackle a whole novel makes including one even more of a challenge. Yet the occasional longer work, something in between the short story and short novel, can be worthwhile for both teacher and student. Often, these in-between texts offer the concentrated plot line of the story coupled with increased character development and use of imagery/symbolism. These length fictions frequently have what novelist and scholar John Gardner called "an almost oriental purity. . . [an] elegant tracing of an emotional line" (183). There are several excellent pieces of writing which fall into this literary no-man's land -- some well-known, others not -- but finding them is often made difficult by book publishers who masquerade these briefer works as full-blown novels.

Bersama penumpang pria lainnya yang kebetulan mengelilingi diriku. Aku sedikit gelisah karena mereka terus mendorong tubuhku, entah sengaja atau apa. Sedangkan Sehun berada jauh dariku. Juga berdiri disana dengan matanya yang fokus ke luar kaca bis. Syukur minumanku dan miliknya sudah kami berikan pada orang yang ada di halte tadinya, jadinya kami tidak terlalu repot membawanya.

Alternate Title:- Birth Of 'The Heavenly Prince'
Just then I saw a man sitting adjacent to Randolph's desk. His features aren't bad, great built but I feel a familiarity in him that I can't explain. His silky dark blue hair reflected the sunset glow from the window with his hands professionally rested on his lap. He seems calm and silent but I could see from his face that he feels grief and loss with a little of hope. As he looked up and gazed at me a shock kicked in and it seems the man feels it, too. He begins to feel hopeful and surprised at the same time.
