What is your reaction to the text you just read?
I find the story confusing. I feel like I drop in the middle of a story that was be paraphrased. I feel like I was miss key elements, or I was reading a journal that only made sense to the writer. I don't really have a connection to it. I didn't grab me and pull me in and make me want to read more. I didn't get to read the whole thing but I didn't see how the Bob Dylan song fit into the context of the story.
What connections did you make with the story? Discuss the elements of the work with which you were able to connect?
I didn't feel a connection to really any of it. I didn't get why the guy beat the crap out of someone because he took his parking spot, and I didn't get why he started using drugs. I did get why that girl loved him, because sometimes you don't know why you love someone you just do, even if their a shit person.
What changes would you make to adopt this story into another medium? What medium would you use? What changes would you make?
I think if you took just a couple of important lines from each chapter and created a visual to explain the scene I story might make more sense. I think maybe a series of paintings or graphics with text embedded in the visual. I think it would be better if the story became more vague because the viewer can interpret it in whatever way they chose.
