What is she saying about life? Think about chapter titles and minor characters. Start with a motif (religion, education, growing up, women, politics, fear, freedom, etc.) and build a statement about that word. Everyone should write a different possible theme statement before choosing your favorite (vote with the star rating) to add to the Literary Review paper.

This creates a sense of urgency to contact their loved ones after the bombing. In the second panel, residents of the building are shown calling their friends and family.
