Snow Crash

This week I read Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash published in 1992. It takes place in a future that seems foreign and familiar all at the same time. Distribution of wealth is a problem within the novel and only a very thin veil stand between the wealthy controlling the rest of the population. And in the novel focuses on how important a language can be.

In the book Snow Crash has a huge problem with racism, there are no laws to prevent killing innocent people in the crossfire of gang warfare which means only the poor people will die because the wealthy can just continue their life in somewhere else instead of stuck in there.  

After reading the novel I really don’t like the ending the book ends with so many ifs. There were so many unpredictable player in the game for it.

Interview with the vampire

I watched this film before, I was so immersed by the plot and the complex relationship between the character, so I’m pretty excited to read the novel version. The novel interview with the vampire is narrated from a third-person limited point of view, which is focused on the main character, Louis. In this novel, Annie Rice definitely focused on how human nature, immortality, and mortality plays in a relationship. From the outset Louis struggles with his vampire nature, refusing for a long time to feed on human blood, eating only small animals instead. On the other side, Lesta and Armand contests Loui’s sense of humanity and morality urging him to embrace his essence pushes Louis to accept he is no longer a human, but he is a much more powerful and supreme creature, and when Louis makes the conscious choice to turn madeleine into a vampire, he surrenders to his “nature” of being a vampire. He finally destroying the obvious remnants of his humanity. On the other hand, humans like

The Hobbit

This week I read the Hobbit. This week is about a heroic journey. Bilbo Baggins is definitely not a typical hero. He is more like we don't have any special powers as a hobbit. But in the whole novel, we can see the change. Bilbo Baggins is on a journey of self-discovery, uncovering unknown talents and overcoming dangers throughout the mission. The Hobbit is an adventure story that exemplifies the journey of a classic hero. In the traditional template, the hero begins with an ordinary life, and this place will remain in the journey. The protagonist is asked to take action or leave the family mentioned above. Along the way, the hero encountered a mentor and was tested by the enemy. Is this the story of the Hobbit?     What makes this story interesting is greed. This is the central theme of the novel, and almost every character shows a kind of greed, including Bilbo, when he keeps Arkenstone and Ring. Thorin Oakenshield showed the worst greed. He had a huge t

What is your reaction to the text you just read? First I was confused after I finished reading it I really don’t like it. The story itself it’s pretty interesting I just can’t imagine how human and a creature   T’ Gatoi are able to live together and knowing what T’Gatoi wants from a human. It Just reminds me of a movie called Evolution the idea of letting a young boy whose turn has come to carry the eggs of T’ Gatoi it’s really similar. What Connections did you make with the story? Discuss the elements of the world with which you were able to connect? I don’t really connect to the story but the relationship between the characters are pretty messed up. I just felt T’ Gatoi used human as a tool for their reproduction and food. Even I don’t understand but it seems to be a natural thing for them, and for Gan chose not to run away at the end because he has no choice. I just felt they did what they should be doing, the world is like that. In some way, it is similar to the wo
