Have a little read: ... How does U.A.Fanthorpe create different personalities within the poems 'Not My Best side' and 'Old Man, Old Man'? 'Not My Best Side' and 'Old Man, Old Man', both by U.A.Fanthorpe, create different personalities and changes within these throughout the poems. Fanthorpe uses humour, different styles of language, imagery and stereotypes to put her point across. 'Not My Best Side' is based on Uccello's painting from the Renaissance period, of St. George and the Dragon. Fanthorpe has in many ways reversed the personalities portrayed in the picture, and used modern stereotypes to show how hard it is to break out of stereotypes created by society. 'Old Man, Old Man' focuses more on change. It uses the stereotypes of an old man and a successful businessman. A narrator, who can be taken to be the old man's daughter, tells the poem 'Old Man, Old Man'. The poem uses imagery and different poetic techniques
