GO SET A WATCHMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my lord. Genuinely sweating tears with emotion after discovering my favourite author is publishing a sequel to the most perfect semi-autobiographicalish southern gothic bildungsroman novel - To Kill a Mockingbird <3

Apparently Lee wrote it sixty years ago though. Just think about this: potentially one of the most perfect pieces of literature ever written has just been laying in a pile of dust for over sixty years and no one even knew about it. What the even heck (bar Lee cp and her publishers)

so all we know so far is that she began writing it prior to writing mockingbird, but naturally the allusions to her childhood captivated Lee's editor so bad he persuaded her to forget this adult scout and just explore the child jean-lewuise (southern accent)

okay so apparently Scout returns to Maycomb from NEW YORK to reconcile with Atticus and some old friends. But then emotional turmoil is provoked from discovering that her father's attitudes affect her politically and emotionally....

My predicion: I interpret her fathers 'attitudes' as prejudice - since in the book it was implied that he was both sexist and homophobic during his beautiful final speech in court when claiming 'there is not a man on this earth who hasn't looked upon a woman with desire' - through this hyperbolic declarative, he is omitting people who haven't looked upon a woman with desire; perhaps suggesting they do not constitute 'man'. such a weird word 'man' unless its just repercussions of too much repetition in head. And when scout asks why the jury is composed of men only, he discredits women but I can't remember the quote becuase haven't even read it for like six months :(:(:(

So I think this will link to 'Go Set a Watchman' becuase after marrying the most butters child in the world (Dill) poor scout will be perpetually scarred, and may perhaps find homosexual feelings, thus causing her to have an affair. Also she's a broadway star hence why they live in new york. After her alcoholic husband charles baker harris (Dill) discovers Scout's infidelity, he entraps her in an irrepressible force of abuse. One day, she manages to escape, but becuase she was acting impulsively she failed to see the flaws in her escape plan and gets caught. In retalliation for trying to escape, Dill murders Scout's brother and holds Mayella Ewell hostage. Meanwhile Calpurnia is assasinated. To avenge her brother, Scout kills Dill by inseminating his meth with poisoned milk. Feeling sentimental, nostalgic, but not remorseful, she returns home to Maycomb County, alamaba seeking solace in her Father. But upon discovering the abhorrence, she wishes she'd never come back: Living in oblivion would have been less painful than witnessing the abhorrence of the truth

okay so you know I started to loose it when I resorted to abhorrence, as I do in english essays when Im loosing hope, but that was probs the longest I've ever blogged without using it lol. NGL what I discribed just there was basically cat on a hot tin roof, breaking bad, and my life haha.

I predict the main themes will be:
Mendacity
Corruption of the Innocent
Longing for innocence
Dystopian society
Cannibalistic Intolerance
Martyrdom
Sacrifice
Feminism
Sexual Equalité
Racial Equalité
Civil Rights
PREJUDICE
ABHORRENCE
Domestic Abuse
Modernisation
cosmopolitanisation (is that even a word?)
Equality for Penguins x

Altruism

Another v nice word up there with catharsis its the concept of acting selflessly; self-sacrifice for others Do you know what its like to have someone criticise your every step, every microcosmic fragment of a movement, every action you inadvertently burden until you begin to chastise your own thoughts?? This is who my mother is ostensibly marrying. Here are some frustratingly hypocritically things he says plus comments I would riposte, had I, the audacity: 'did you boil the kettle????? you're wasting money by filling it up all the way' - ok it says min 0.8ltrs and the hard water limescale has clouded the lucidity so you can't tell when it reaches it. So sorry for not being able to judge this minimum value by the weight alone or the metaphysical aqueous forces but evidently the divinity Poseidon was not by my side bc this subversive domestic corruption that is this slight overestimation is surely paralleled to regicide!! Someone hit up ma home g shakespeare bc seem...

CONDOLENCES ARE AVEC X

It seems my soul may have leaked slightly out of my spirit a bit in the exam hall today Unfortunately, for the past two weeks my sleep schedule has been abhorrently what one may consider abhorrently peversive: time of bed varied from 2-4am; time of awakening varied between 2-4pm. Thus, time spent in the realms of my dreams ranged from 12 - 14 hours. Though actually dreams only last about 5 mins even thus the latter utterance was totes nonsensical. Did you know you have multiple dreams but you only remember the most recent one in the morning (or afternoon) just before you awaken!!! Unless your dogs wake you up at 12 and then you fall back asleep and then you can remember two bcus surruptitious poodlie :3 But anyway, due to having to wake up just TWO HOURS AFTER FALLING ASLEEP (bcus unbreakable cycle), I'm sorry my fellow english language A level students, but one was unable to conceal; you all had to feel. Yes, I appreciate you all suffered the burden of the feeling the glacial ...

Waterproof; Nothing to Loose

Yesterday was really nice because my dad and Aunt's boyf went out shopping for technological items whilst my Aunt and I went down to the infinity edge pool. it was such a beautiful moment because while my Aunt was reading on the sunbed I was the only person in the entire pool (really long) and I just swam slightly following the curvature of the curves bcus love all your curves and all your edges; all your perfect imperfections. V invigorating experience just sitting on the outer edge thinking: how it do it?? how water vanish like dat?????? Also having my hair in a bun to prevent chlorine damage felt v revolutionary bcus by exposing my neck There was more opportunity for the cold of my soul to leak out and permeate, hopefully superseding the abhorrence of the radiating heat <3 However I was so grateful for the glacial coolness encapsulating me <3 Thereafter, I exited the perpetual phenomenon and allowed the aqueous droplets of chlorine (chemically intertwined with at least a f...
