Comparison of 2 Poems

I wrote my thesis on the comparison of "Photograph of My Father in His Twenty-Second Year" by Raymond Carver and "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" by Dylan Thomas. I will show how each child will explore the complex child parent relationship from the adult child's point of view. How each one sees and feels about their father. Carver sees his father as a flawed individual, while Thomas sees his father as a heroic individual, but yet they both idolize their fathers.
