Reflection:
I think it is a somewhat boring book. It is talk about a
normal person and his normal life. His encounter may be just like every normal
person may meet up. We see everyday life is a common, regular thing. So when we
read this book just feel some boring.
But I do not know why Macon so hesitating. He divorced
with Sarah then he went with Muriel. Then Sarah came back to him, he decided
went back to Sarah . And when they three went to Paris, he finally chose
Muriel. I do not know why he did this. This way made two women very confused
and lost confidence in his behavior.
Lose child is a very sad thing to parents and the parents may
lead out many problems and quarrel. So the communication is important to them.
If they do not communication, it may became the same thing of the couple did of
this book: quarrel, divorced and find another partner and hang around with two
women or men. Or even much worse thing than them. It
is not good for the couple and other people who around them. So communication
and calm down are really important things.
