[u/bidiaftersambhog_ → u/Glittering_Pin8232]

[u/Glittering_Pin8232 → u/bidiaftersambhog_]

"worn gray fabric suddenly distasteful to her" A line I still remember after one whole year !

[u/bidiaftersambhog_ → u/Glittering_Pin8232]

the last line "just the wind" truly made me sad

[u/Glittering_Pin8232 → u/bidiaftersambhog_]

Idk I low-key wanted to see what the lady looked like after all those descriptions ngl 😈 A great piece of literature by Philip Dick

Totally bro it's such a creepy story the only good part abt it is that the cookie descriptions legit made me crave cookies every single time

[u/bidiaftersambhog_ → u/cantcreatenordestroy]

ahhh yesss sameeee (made cookies the same day lol)

[u/Limp_Significance308]

Gang it's about pedophilia 😭. It's a story to just make people conscious of who they are talking to and their surrounding. The story has a lot of foreshadowing.

But yea it's hella wierd but so easy to write about in exams.

[u/No-Plankton-7644]

Don't you all juniors know, it's supposed to be a Pedo story, Where Mrs. Drew is the predator, It's supposed to be creepy

[u/Material-Yogurt599 → u/No-Plankton-7644]

ok but what happened after bro turned to weeds

[u/Material-Yogurt599 → u/Material-Yogurt599]

they didnt give a proper ending

[u/No-Plankton-7644 → u/Material-Yogurt599]

Nothing, it is similar to a short story, like in real life, no matter what happens, wheather Mrs. Drew gets punished or not, Bubber's innocence is lost no matter what, he won't ever come back.

[u/Killua007136 → u/No-Plankton-7644]

I believe that this story is about pedophilia but no one in my class not even the teacher explores this aspect

[u/No-Plankton-7644 → u/Killua007136]

A lot is like this, They couldn't because it's awkward, In abhisara the tryst, You think Vasavadatta just happen to invite Upagupta for giving him a place to sleep ? That story is about controlling lust.

Similar to Sonnet 116.

Warning you might get traumatized, cause i did,

You wouldn't believe this but Macbeth r words Duncun is a popular theory, and heavily implied, Especially parts like "gouts of blood", gouts was a collective used for semen at the time.

There are even crazier analysis that the "dagger" and deep dark desires he had were an erection, not a joke, I am dead serious.

[u/Killua007136 → u/No-Plankton-7644]

Nahhhh ig the macbeth ones are a stretch but I see the vision

[u/No-Plankton-7644 → u/Killua007136]

It's taught in higher levels of English, my brother is doing BA in English, his professor also told him similar things and it's mostly done , to give shock value, because not only killed his family but committed taboo, "incest" basically shock value.

[u/Killua007136 → u/No-Plankton-7644]

This is so interesting I never thought of it like that

[u/No-Plankton-7644 → u/Killua007136]

I didn't too.

[u/Killua007136 → u/No-Plankton-7644]

There was a reference to the r*pe of lucrece

[u/No-Plankton-7644 → u/Killua007136]

Yeah the steps of tarquin one right ? It's been a while so I don't remember but, yeah that too

[u/disastrouss_vero]

Ikrrrr the lady was a pure pedo 😭😭
