In particular, a father who is doctor, the protagonist mother who does not work, and their two sons. The story begins when they are on vacation with many of Mr.Pontellier’s relatives and associates.

"Invisible Cities- Trading Cities 3"
Trading Cities is the story which tells about the city of Eutropia, the capital of a specific territory. The traveler sees Eutropia in different ways,essentially its size which is partially unequal. Additionally, It appears like a rolling plateau. The city consists of several cities that are waiting to be discovered by other inhabitants, therefore to start a new life there. However, the idea behind the story is that it reflects the rotation effect by which people are used with , but are not aware in general. Furthermore, the rotation effect in a way indicates the habits of people ,and how they change places continually. Another variant of rotation effect is partly illustrating the life cycle , where Calvino succeeded to generalize it as ongoing process.
"Call Me" by Frank O'Hara
This beautiful poem by Frank O'Hara really impressed me in the way that he offers the reader with the something unique, something which rarely can be found in other poets. "Call Me" is built by his personal style and spontaneity, therefore combining these two and creating desired outcome. Additionally, he contributed in developing so called 'the new romanticism'.
As a consequence, he is shown to us with unique style of urbane and genuine poem; therefore, his unconditional work makes the reader to acknowledge his great work throughout the life.
