So The Hollow Men was really interesting to me. There were so many different ideas but they all had the same meaning to them. Death was the main focus and it was kind of scary. Eliot had a hard life and it really shows in his writings. Eliot is a mastermind in order to have all of those allusions in just the Hollow Men alone. The Lords prayer, Juileus Ceasar and many more. Its kind of cool how he can do that and how it all makes sense.
i think knowing more about the author would have made understanding this story alot easier, but it was interesting how eliot related the story to death.
ReplyDeleteEliot is definitely an interesting writer...his views on things are very different than most peoples'. He thinks that society is full of 'dead' people that have no independence or say in anything. Basically, we are all sitting ducks that follow each other because that is what everyone is doing. I mean I see what he is saying but like, some people are really independent and live their own life. oh mannn i forgot i was commenting...i though i was posting ):
