#16 Paper Brainstorming
For some reason this didn’t post last week, I thought it did. I never saved a draft.
For the paper I took both the Osacar Wao and Disgrace novels and developed what I thought to be the main themes of each. In Oscar Wao I figured the main theme was that of love and the ensuing quest each main character, Oscar, Lola, and Beli take trying to find their own true love. To contrast the main theme of love I choose the underlying (Fuku) or bad luck curse which is believed to plague the family in Oscar Wao.
For Disgrace I choose the theme of death as represented by how it changes David Lurie.
