As defined in ILCS §5/19-3, “a person commits residential burglary when he knowingly enters or remains within the dwelling place of another, or any part thereof, with the intent to commit a felony.” For the purpose of this statute, dwelling is defined as “a house, apartment, mobile home, trailer, or other living quarters” in which a person “actually resides.” §5/2-6(b).

Throughout Dwellings, Hogan recounts significant experiences that enable her to inch…

For this reason, we will now analyze why we come up with these imaginary worlds in the first place. It is said that literary utopias are products of the period in which they were created.
