I don’t know how to handle this English question and need guidance.
Instructions:
Satirical Analysis: Where do see an example of irony, hyperbole, sarcasm, or humor in the novel? How is this ridiculing some aspect in our society, whether that be the abuse, corruption, or absurd practices (and shortcomings) of persons, institutions, or social structures? See sample analysis on 4.8 Themes and Satire in White Noise and 5.4 Hitler’s Death Camps & Chapter 21.
Interpretative Question: In chapter 21, Murray asks a prostitute if he can perform the Heimlich maneuver on her (152). What makes this act or arrangement sexual? How does this define Murray’s sexuality? Does this request have some deeper meaning in the novel, particularly to the fear-of-death theme?
Ask a Literary Question: post a thoughtful, discussion-based question about the novel based on the instructions on the previous module page 4.10 Drafting Literary Questions.
Chapter 1 starts on page 9, chapter 21 starts on page 51.
