Response and Week 13
what is your reaction to the text? While reading the text, it was interesting to see how smoothly the story transitioned into each scene. The way the artist was able to connect the past and present through smooth visual transitions was impressive and made the work even more enjoyable to read. It was an intense and sad and scary comic all in one. I enjoyed it very much. What connections did you make to the story? Discuss the elements of the story with which you were able to connect. For me, the idea of poverty and sanity stood out to me. Poverty in the sense that I know what it's like to be in that position, but with sanity I feel that it can be a result of poverty. People close to me who have experience homelessness, for example, displayed a sense of losing themselves and the world around them. It's a sad reality that I realized at a young age.
