I WANTED to come up with something terribly clever, but cleverness evaded me! It looks like you've got a good start with the notes, though. :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974988315420539840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-822647988376386021.post-91833186515505090222012-09-02T13:50:46.277+02:002012-09-02T13:50:46.277+02:00How Grimm!

I'm going to finish up one reading today and get to writing an essay. If I can shove this idea into 320 words, great. If not, then bah humbug. I'll just have to see if the other idea will fit.

I have read "The Country of the Blind" yesterday too, and it is even worse with it! I completely loved the story, but have no single idea, what can be a possible topic. I think I'll read "Star" and reread "The Invisible Man" and then I'll do some comparison, as with Hawthorne stories.Arenelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08646965847129179304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-822647988376386021.post-85445798650106385422012-09-02T06:17:56.065+02:002012-09-02T06:17:56.065+02:00Satia's reaction mirrors mine.

Both Orwell and Bradbury were readers of HG Wells.<br /><br />Exiled, with variants of outcast and lost, is a theme across most or all Wells readings (have yet to read Star). Cast out echoes Eden, Cain too. Lost in the dark woods too.

The abstinence and blood, garden of Eden, the suggestion of slavery (I even marked the same quote as you did), and I have absolutely no clue what I want to write. Completely stumped, as I am every week. I'm off to bed to read some more and maybe something will click. Satiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227625739706115993noreply@blogger.com
