Many elements of The Odyssey can be seen in modern literature (literature of the 20th and 21st centuries). Some of these elements include mythical elements (such as gods, goddesses, and other immortals), the epic hero cycle, and character archetypes. Think of a book, poem, or story you have read that resembles the Odyssey in some way. Write two paragraphs explaining how mythology in general (or the Odyssey in particular) has influenced this piece of modern literature. Please Help!! Thank you so much!

Read the excerpt from poe’s "the fall of the house of usher." his ordinary occupations were neglected or forgotten. he roamed from chamber to chamber with hurried, unequal, an objectless step. the pallor of his countenance had assumed, if possible, a more ghastly hue -- but the luminousness of his eye had utterly gone out. which statement best describes the effect of the narration on the story? the narration reveals usher’s feelings of discouragement. the narration reveals usher’s absent-mindedness after his loss. the narration suggests usher’s confusion in the wake of his loss. the narration suggests usher’s mental decline after his sister’s death.
