This is a very intriguing book to read. It raises interesting questions, and challenges me to reread the page and try and figure out what they are talking about. Also, having a character list has been very helpful while reading so that I can distinguish each character.
I cannot get over the conversation between Berlioz, Homeless, and the Foreigner (Professor Woland). Every time Berlioz and Homeless would say that Jesus Christ is a myth, and there is "no proof of God's existence," Professor Woland would grow more enthused and curious (10). That frustrates me because Woland is the devil figure, and his reactions to the denial of God are probably very similar to what Satan does when we deny God. However, it is very interesting that Woland continues asking "how man can govern" if man is not everlasting or all-knowing (11).
I commented on Rachel's!
Their conversation with the foreigner, I agree, was odd. It was a good way to start a book, because I couldn't put it down.
ReplyDeleteI did the same thing and having character list while reading definitely helped prevent as much confusion!
