Chapter 2......


The EXPOSITION!!!!
So, chapter 2 is still part of the exposition.....we are getting to know the characters and we are discovering the "setting" .....a Utopia?????
The language they use in this community is curious, it seems to be devoid of emotions. A baby is called a "newchild" and a home is called a "family dwelling." (among others) We are wondering why they chose to use this type of language. Does it reflect some of the rules in this community? Does it reflect a theme in the book?
One other interesting fact is that there are no animals in this community. Your assignment for Monday is to write a creative description of an animal, without using the name of the animal and using the language of the community. Good Luck!
