This was very sad Book. There was a lot of death in it. It is a little confusing to me. Why would she write something like this? Was it because there was something going on in her life? There is a lot of space on the pages but I think that it is necessary to have it there.There is a point to every page and they intertwine with each other. There seems to be chapters divided by blank televisions.
There were many movie and television references to death. There was the Sopranos. The Wild Bunch, where everyone died at the end. The movies, Fitzarraldo, which seems to be about art. There was the show, Murder as She Wrote, Boogie Nights and Magnolia. Some of these she watched with her friends that were either dying of cancer or were every depressed. There were also references to people that made the news. Timothy McVeigh, who I guess was a murderer and was put on death row. There was also Ruby Giuliani. Death occurs a lot in our daily lives and major deaths we here a lot on the news.
I found it really funny that it seems that she is not a very big fan of politics. Do believe that she doesn't like Bush (p. 21). She uses her mothers words to describe her feelings. "You don't know because you don't care." I am not a fan of fan, and he really didn't care.
