Task One - Five Sentences


Task One

5 Sentences- What I have learnt so far. 

  1. Cormac McCarthy as a child, was heavily influenced by being a witness of The Cold War and the Cuban Missile Crisis.
  2. This novel is written in American staple format, typically containing a journey (North to South) 
  3. In a post-modern style, it is a brickolage of contrasting genres.
  4. The way society viewed low cultured things influenced McCarthy into using items such as a shopping trolley to portray how the Man and Boy are clinging on to their last shred of humanity. 
  5. McCarthy takes things that are discarded as unimportant which we don’t find interesting and uses them to reflect the collapse in society.
