BNW notes chapter 8

Linda was crying because she broke something
Mescal should be named soma
Women were whipping Linda because she was sleeping with their husbands
People were so beastly and unfair
Linda was blaming John because she would have gone to the Inspecto but she couldn’t with a baby
People in the world state were never sad or angry
Boys called Linda bad
John was learning how to read
John hates Popé that he stabbed him
Popé calls John Brave
John gets happy when he finds out Bernard and Lenina aren’t married

Response to “Dream Within a Dream”

What I understand from the poem “Dream Within a Dream” is that it seems hard to understand what is a dream and what it real life. It is also really hard to remember what your dream was about even after you just woke up. No matter how had you try to remember it the less you seem to know what you were dreaming about and even the most basic details about it. The author also want to show how he would like to hold on to them for a long period of time so he can remember at least the good things in life, even if that comes from just a dream.

It motivates me because I know what I need to improve on and I find ways to get better. It also makes me responsible because I know what I need to understand and how to increase my learning in anyway.
