The Fly
Has anyone read this book? I read it back in high school and utterly hated it. I recently read it again and found it to be very profound in some places. I was reading some of ForHonors posts and it made me think of it-I had to start a new thread though, even I don't have the patience to look through 26 pages. It's a weird book, but the overall idea is that shit happens-"so it goes" (okay-there's more to it than that, but read the book yourself if you want to know). I hate that idea, it seems so much like apathy to me. But at the same time I'm drawn towards it-it just makes life easier sometimes. People are murdered, robbed, die of old age or in car accidents everyday. It's no one's fault really, it just happens. But is it really the right thing to do, to just sit back and go "so it goes"-even the things you can't change, shouldn't you atleast try and take glory in the attempt or defeat? I dunno-I really should so be studing biochem right now, but this really requires WAY less effort and it much more interesting.
So what's everyone else's opinion?
