Station Eleven

Quotes:

"The shock of realizing that this was probably actually the ending, after a lifetime of near misses, after all this time" (p9 300)

This quote made me emotional because Kristen had a gut feeling this was going to be alive. I could just feel her started giving up. I just know Kristen was terrified when she saw the prophet with a rifle.


Discussion questions:

1. Together with several others, Clark stayed in the airport where they first ate the meals before finally sending groups out to get food. He also started a museum featuring artifacts from the pre-collapse era. Through adaptability and resourcefulness, the people are surviving physically. And they are using culture, interpersonal connection, and the arts as psychological survival strategies.

2. For the people who live near the airport, the museum of civilization is significant since it serves as a sort of second home. Every resident contributes to survival by helping with food preparation and household responsibilities. Having spent more than ten years here, they all get to know one another. To help them feel a part of the past, the airport serves as a reminder that there was a world before the pandemic. Also, the museum offers them a place to stay.

3. I believe saving them is a good thing and that the group members are necessary, but you are also endangering everyone else. Personally, I wouldn't go a rescue because it's too risky.

4. In hiding in the bushes, the prophet discovers Sayid and Kristen August. The profit is informed when the dog detects Kristen's scent. Since the profit intends to kill Kristen, she must come out of hiding. The small boy kills the profit just as he is about to fire, and August goes on to kill the other men. The little child then ends his own life. She Is trying not to gaze at the profit or the arrow at her forehead, she concludes that the woods and sky should be her last sights. Realizing that this might be the final instance.

Blog Journal for Station Eleven

  “WHAT WAS LOST IN THE COLLAPSE: almost everything, almost everyone, but there is still such beauty.”   (page 57) This section opens Chapter 11, right before the Traveling Symphony presents A Midsummer Night's Dream. It encapsulates the main idea of the book, which is that hope endures even in the face of unspeakable suffering and loss. In addition to providing venues for individuals to rejoice, grieve, and escape the misery of their circumstances, the Traveling Symphony seeks to remind people of the beauty that still exists in the world. “In the lobby, the people gathered at the bar clinked their glasses together. ‘To Arthur,’ they said. They drank for a few more minutes and then went their separate ways in the storm.  Of all of them there at the bar that night, the bartender was the one who survived the longest." (page 15) This text beautifully conveys the transience of relationships forged over drinks, the frailty of life, and the quiet fortitude of the bartender—a su...

Sherlock Holmes, Fairies, and the Devil Baby of Hull House

 1. The ways he failed in his investigative work, the first of which was that they may have provided phony photos. This would lead to something that they would be unable to resolve because they lack the necessary evidence. also, the problem that Canon Doyle did not show up. He decided to do something that would not solve the problem but would make it more serious. The last thing he did incorrectly was that they had numerous reasons to assume Elsie was the photographer, but they were convinced that she was not qualified to draw the fairy photographs. 2. Jane finds out that many of the women had been through one or more devastating incidents in their lives. They found they had no authority in their family, since the men wielded the most power. This left the ladies generally voiceless, so they utilized the Devil Baby tale to get their voice.  3. I agree with Doyle because, while not everything can be verified with solid proof. everything has an explanation. There are so...
