Madman
I would like to start off by saying that it was great not having class on Tuesday the weather was beautiful. Anyways when reading this story I got the fact that the younger brother felt like everyone was out to get him and eat him. But at the same time I kept thinking to myself I know this story has to have some abstract type of meaning behind it, but I couldn't put my finger on it. That was until we had class, hearing every ones ideas about how this story about cannibalism relates to today's society. It also helped when he gave examples of how this type of story has been around for ever, how society trys to have people conform, and if they don't conform society will devour them and make them a part of themselves. Know wonder he is a Madman.
