Feed B

If i were to recommend this book to someone.... i will recommend this book to my little brother. I think this book will help my brother out and let him realize what he is doing to himself. I know that the book "Feed" will draw my brother attention and force him to grow and learn from his mistakes. Somehow M.T Anderson has a way to get into the mind of a readers and make them realize what they are doing wrong. As what every writer or editor has a reason why they are writing this book to young children, they are trying to send a note or a message telling us something important or something we must learn. Ha! Right after my brother read it, there wont be no happy ending for him. He knows that spending too much on the computer will affect his thinking, but he still does it. I want the book to tear out his brain and make him suffer.

As What Anderson point out in his book that if you are continously using digital devices, sooner or later, you will approach deaft. This tells us reader that dealing with technologycan makes us become more ignorant. This makes the reader feeling worrys and make them learn. I think it was very smart of M.T Anderson that he create such story and connects it to our world, when young teenagers understand more about techonlogy situation. Our lives is very similar to Titus's life. If there were happy ending, Titus wouldnt have learn from his mistakes and if we were compared Titus to us; we dont live in an happy ending. We live in a world of tragedy. And referring to what Tobin was saying at the end, young adults/adults has the potential to become more ignorant due to the fact that technologies are so addictive. Now an day, our young generation follow our footstep and become less educator.

I think art is a mirror and a hammer. The mirror is a reflection of the situation and the hammer is to be able to shape the way they wanted to be. Both of these help us realize what American teenagers is doing. The mirror plus the hammer help us visualize what we are doing behind the world. This all depends on the readers, and the affect by the book. In Feed situation, the book is a masterpiece that will turn everything around from how it started and how it will end.

  1. Quinn,

    The extra effort you're making in these posts - adding biographical information to HW12 and this literary twist about your little brother to HW13 - makes your posts much more fun and interesting to read. Keep it up.
