The Essay Topic Purple Rain
The Essay Topic 'Purple Rain'Purple Rain by Joseph O'Neill was a book on 'Purple Rain Essay Topics' and I liked it. The story started with Rylan, his parents, and their long struggle to raise a very naughty boy. Then the story traveled into three different time periods where a different Rylan faced new adventures.One interesting aspect of the book is that the title of the book comes from the background of the theme song, which by the way is always much better than the actual music. But then this was O'Neill's first novel, so I cannot comment on whether the story was coherent or not.I think the story is well told and the essay topics were also relevant for my college-level essays. That makes sense, as the stories don't go too far off from reality, so it would make sense to have the essays reflect these facts. I also found that the two bookmarks on the side of the box actually linked to the stories in the books, which is nice.A couple of things that bothered me were the use of the bad boy Rylan and the glam rock look of his mom. This wasn't a big problem because these details were part of the story anyway, but I wanted to read about Rylan's actual character. I would have preferred a slightly more light hearted tone, but then the nature of the story maybe would have been somewhat different.Overall, I liked the essay topics, but after reading O'Neill's other novels and short stories, I would have liked to see more of his dark comedic characters, but it is not really a bad thing to mix things up from time to time. After all, we all have the same boring subjects we are writing about anyway.For those who want to try reading the Purple Rain book for the first time, there is also a PDF version for easy reading. There are no page numbers, but if you're like me, you can still figure out what's going on. If not, then you might not get a full experience, but you can still use it to read the essay topics.There were a few things I didn't like about the book, but the story its elf, and my knowledge of the novel gave it a little more luck than the others. The biggest complaint I had was about the use of Purple Rain as the theme of the book, but overall, the whole story and topic sounded right for my college-level essay. The bookmarks are well written and do a good job of giving the ideas for each topic.Now that I'm done with my college-level essays, I will try to read some of O'Neill's other novels and short stories. Since I was already in love with the Purple Rain story, I guess I'll just continue with it. If you haven't read the novel before, give it a try, I would like to see what else you've got up your sleeve.
