Read this excerpt from f. scott fitzgerald's "winter dreams":
i'm more beautiful than anybody else," she said brokenly, "why can't i be happy? " her moist eyes tore at his stability—her mouth turned slowly downward with an exquisite sadness: "i'd like to marry you if you'll have me, dexter. i suppose you think i'm not worth having, but i'll be so beautiful for you, dexter."
what important statement is made in the excerpt about the upper-class world that judy grew up in and that dexter aspires to join?
those in the upper classes only value surface appearances.
those in the upper class do not understand love and typically have unhappy marriages.
judy values only her own desires because she is immature and self-absorbed.

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
