The Sorrow of War (Friday 85-105)

1. "You fucking prostitute, lying there showing it for everyone to see. Dare trip me up, damn your ancestors! To help with you!" (Page102)

* This quote relates to the theme prostitution. She had no clothes on and she was around many men.

* This quote is man vs self because the big solider did her wrong taking to much anger put on her instead of controlling his anger.

2."The sorrow of war inside a soilder's heart was in a strange way similar to the sorrow of love. It was a kind of nostalgia, like the immense sadness of a world at dusk." (Page 94)

* This quote relates to the theme love. The war scared him like his love scared him.

* This quote is man vs self because it was something he loved to do even when things were hard.

Reflection: So far all of the characters are growing and gaining much knowledge. The readers now know that Nettie isn't dead after all. Mr was hiding her letters that she sent to Celie. A good reason for him to do this is because Nettie turned him down. This novel teaches many life lessons and I am excited that we chose this book. Daily post: Today I got to go over ACT material with my math teacher. Also, I been studying for 2 hours trying to prepare myself for the test. I have to get up at 7 a.m. tomorrow.  I would be devastated if I don't make a good grade. Fingers crossed and wish me luck.

Reflection of Black Boy

Black Boy is an awesome novel. The biggest lesson in the novel is racism from each race. It shows how African Americans were treated years ago. Humanity was hypocritical and still is today. This novel is a life lesson to many races especially African Americans. Also, education is every important in novel because with education one can become anything. Furthermore, when you stand for what you believe things will go much smoother. Naturalism also occurs in this novel as well. Richard is taught by people around him and it's not who he wants to be.
