Comment on Priya's Post

 Priya I agree with you in that technology seems to be extremely relevant in the book. I mean it's even mentioned in the title. I like your thesis and I think you will not have a very diffucult time writing a term paper on the topic. My only suggestion would be perhaps an adjustment in your first topic in which you said that you would focus on technology in general in the novel. Given how you decided to discuss john and the narrator's different views on technology, which is a realitively integral part of the over all topic of technology in the novel, I suggest you get a bit more specific with your point. Perhaps you could discuss the narrator's use as an example for nearly all of his philosophical tangents. I found it a bit ironic how something man made seemed to be the narrators choice for exemplifying an observation inherent to the nature if mankind and the world. So perhaps you would like to talk about that because I find that irony is always a interning addition in the discussion of a book.
