Chapter 10 - Connection
Lastly, the final chapter reminds me of the movie "August Rush". It does so in the way that both Slaughterhouse-Five and "August Rush" are depressing throughout the book and movie. There is not happiness until the end. In "August Rush", it is that the main character has found his family and the search is over. In Slaughterhouse-Five, it is that war is finally over. An even further connection is that now my blogs are over.
I also thought the book was pretty depressing. Being a novel about war, I believed it was going to be similar to the other war books about heroism and adventure.
ReplyDeleteWe watched that in applied music! I felt the exact same way...the story was unfinished and definitely depressing. Everyone hopes for a happy ending, but in reality happy endings are not that realistic. I like your connection.
