sorry its late guys

Posting #2
The Color of Water
Ch 5-10
Quote Analysis. Quote: “ Folks gots sick and back them days like it was a new dance coming out. Plop! Dead as a doornail.”I wonder why the author talks about death so much and why is he always so straight to the point with it. I think this quote is trying to make it clear that jewish people didn’t try to hang over them as much as normal people do

2. Response: I chose this quote because for one its kinda funny and for serious this is. This also shows on how many different ways people deal with death.

3. Significance: Ruth has had a very hard time in her life with death

Questions

1. why does the author try to focus so much on death and say it to the point instead.

2. why do you think Sam joined the army?
