Chapter 29/30

There is a deep connection with the people and the land but I believe it's a much greater picture. Everywhere, whether the characters know it or not, there has been a conflict between individual and nature. It's what makes us instinctive land animals, from the cavemen we have learned that nature is fierce and aggressive. We've been fighting against our own land from the beginning. This book just gives us a pov of the people suffering because of others that take advantage of the effects. It shows that no matter how much you take, he people still have themselves & still have the capacity of binding together.

  1. Great way to discuss but I don't really believe people/ characters in the novel are able to bind that quickly because if there was a possibility of society as a whole the bank possibly wouldn't be as harsh and take payments over a period of time either a long time or a short time.

  2. I like that you made a deeper connection than just man vs. bank. However, mans conflict usually seem to stem from neglect of nature. If anything, I believe it's man's fault for becoming so desensitized towards nature. We hate nature for being so harsh, yet nature is unchanging. It seems that society's stubbornness to defy nature is the greatest cause of disaster in the modern era.
