The novel also showed death from a global to a personal scale.
like for personal all of the characters are related to Arthur Leander's death. As well as how this book shows a psychological influence of people wondering why are they alive and other aren't.]]> 2018-08-24 13:53:16 UTC https://padlet.com/elijah_cintron76/tytnjw2xje0b/wish/275135164 elijah_cintron76 https://padlet.com/elijah_cintron76/tytnjw2xje0b/wish/275140787 "In the lobby, the people gathered at the bar clinked their glasses together. “To Arthur,” they said. They drank for a few more minutes and then went their separate ways in the storm.

Of all of them there at the bar that night, the bartender was the one who survived the longest. He died three weeks later on the road out of the city."' CH 2 pg 15

The light we carry within us is the ark that carried Noah and his people over the face of the terrible waters, and I submit that we were saved"—his voice was rising—"not only to bring the light, to spread the light, but to be the light. We were saved because we are the light. We are the pure."

We bemoaned the impersonality of the modern world, but that was a lie, it seemed to him; it had never been impersonal at all. There had always been a massive delicate infrastructure of people, all of them working unnoticed around us, and when people stop going to work, the entire operation grinds to a halt. ch 30 pg 178]]> 2018-08-24 14:52:30 UTC https://padlet.com/elijah_cintron76/tytnjw2xje0b/wish/275155923
