Chapter 4
Marcus is finally let out of the prison after 6 long days. Its shocking how grateful Marcus is for everything we usually take for granted. It makes me think how tough things like the holocaust were because they were underfed and treated awful. It seems like once your personal freedoms are gone you don't realize how much you take something granted for. If my personal freedoms were taken away like Marcus it would be awful. I would'nt be able to live because of the limit of social interaction, and the lack of cleanliness. Marcus even was a wise guy when they gave him the opportunity for freedom, which says a lot about the personality of Marcus. Marcus is also very worried about his friend Darryl which shows that Marcus has compassion and motivation to find his lost friend.

I agree with you about the part where Marcus is a wise guy. This could affect him both negatively and positively in his journey.
ReplyDeleteMarcus is a wise guy and this could be a positive or negetive trait based on the circumstance, as the previous comment states. I also agree with how torture allows individuals to rethink what they take for granted. I do not think Marcus cares as much for rescuing Daryl as he goes home without a rescue attempt.
