in class, we started to go over chapters 3, 4, and 5

Chapter 3  Veterans from insane asylum go to Golden day whorehouse *LIKE IN Cuckoo's Nest*  john is mr norton  taylor is invisible man  david was a vet  invisible man looks uncomfortable, seperated by a few feet to try to get out of the situation  invisible man feels uncomfortable but norton never wants to leave  suppresses the feelings that invisible man SHOULD be thinking, that the vet is //saying//  (the vet is “insane” but also is the only one speaking logically) – major irony  grandfather's curse  taylor might also be both invisible man and mr Norton  intrigued and disgusted at the same time, just like earlier with trueblood

 what do they say about it  shows aprehension of invisible man <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> interested in what's going on, but stays away physically <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> *watch for the vet again* (ch 6 or 7)
