“In fact, he found he wasn’t even frightened. All he could feel, All he had felt since the monster revealed itself, was a growing disappointment.” This quotation is found in Chapter 1 when Conor met the monster for the first time.

‘She’s always sick after her treatments, she’ll be better tomorrow” he glared at her. In this page Conor is in denial that his mom is not doing well and he would need to go to live with his grandma. Page 60 chapter ‘grandma’

"He knew the monster was something different, something ancient, but Conor didn't know what. And he didn't care. This wasn't the anything Conor had been expecting. He had been expecting something else. Something specific."

This quote shows Conor's initial confusion and refusal to accept the reality of his mother's illness. He distracts himself with thoughts of the monster and avoids confronting the truth.

“And he also knew he was going to get through it.

It would be terrible. It would be beyond terrible.

But he’d survive.”

“He felt the monster place its hands on his shoulders. Somehow they were small enough to feel like they were holding him up.”

“The room was mostly dark, just a light on over her bed where she lay. Her eyes were closed, and her breathing sounded like there was a weight on her chest.”

“I don’t want you to go,” he said, the tears dropping from his eyes, slowly at first, then spilling like a river.”

"He could only watch as he shattered the room, his fists moving with a will of their own, ripping and tearing at everything."

"Connor didn't know how it happened, but suddenly it was as if the anger had been let loose, and it burned through him like wildfire."

“He'd get up in the morning and his grandma wouldn't talk to him, not even about the phone call from the Headmistress. He'd go to school,go to school,and no one would talk to him there either. He d visit his mum in hospital, and she'd be too tired to talk to him.His dad would phone, and he'd have nothing to say.” The quote portrays how Conor feels lonely and ignored by everyone in his life, from his family to his schoolmates. Despite his efforts to connect with them, he finds himself isolated and unable to communicate effectively with anyone.

Roxy - ‘Conor was no longer invisible. They all saw him now. But he was further away then ever.’ This quote shows how Conor is now noticed but dosen’t really exist. Everyone is scared of him. They are all distanced due to the fact that they thought Conor beat up Harry when it was the monster controlling it.

iphotiou — 2024-06-20 03:36:41 UTC

Conor had felt what the monster was doing to Harry, felt it in his own hands. This shows that the monster isn’t actually real since no one else saw it only Conor. This happens on page 181 in chapter 25 ( punishment)- Thomas p

“It was like standing at the end of the world, almost like being alive and awake in his nightmare, the screaming and emptiness-” After Connor had destroyed his grandmother’s living room in Chapter 17. The use of the simile “ It was like standing at the end of the world” is to display isolation and fear that’s in Connor that was never shown or spoken, almost like the void of Loneliness stands in front of him. The use of the simile “Almost like being alive in his own nightmare” suggests that his grandma’s grieving sounds painful to the point where it’s frightening. Nearly like watching his family fall apart through his grandma’s suffering. The choice to employ Oxymoron “screaming” and “emptiness” Indicates confusion and the different emotions throughout the stages of grief. -Celine
