I won't open any details of the script. It's not just about the story. To feel the book completely you should read it by yourself. Quite unusual style and ineffable composition.
Some interesting ideas and thoughts of the chapter:
"Shotgunning anybody in this room would be the moral equivalent of killing a car, a vacuum cleaner, a Barbie doll. Erasing a computer disk. Burning a book. Probably that goes for killing anybody in the world. We’re all such products."
"Another thing is no matter how much you think you love somebody, you’ll step back when the pool of their blood edges up too close."
The last quote from the chapter in question is rather cruel, however: many men, many minds. I wonder what do you like best in this book? What is the main idea and what the author wanted to tell his readers in the book? I like the way you express your thoughts but I wanted to know more about the plot so that I could decide whether to read or not.
ОтветитьУдалитьOh,no!I had to rewrite my comment because this site decided to clean it before I could save it!
ОтветитьУдалитьOK))
The last phrase makes me think about it. I can agree with it if the author means men/women love ( but there are some exceptions), but I think we can't use this phrase when we speak about mothers/children love.
After reading these quotes I realized that I should try reading a book by Chuck Palahniuk. He has an interesting manner of writing. What book would you recommend to start with?
