Picture Connection to The Alchemist...


I think this picture is similar to what we've been reading so far in The Alchemist because in part 2 all their doing is traveling in a group trying to reach the oasis and avoid war as they try to cross the desert.

The Alchemist.....


So far The Alchemist has been an interesting book and Santiago has changed since the beginning. Santiago now believes how the omens are good signs and how you should always pursue your dream. He now reacts to everything as if they were omens and every little thing is a sign. Santiago has almost become a little wiser telling people how to pursue their own dream.

The Letter to J.D Salinger...


Dear J.D Salinger,

Catcher in the Rye is a very good book and very interesting but what really doesnt make sense is some complicated words in the book that I have never heard of at all another thing is, I dont know how the title of the book links to the story most authors usually link the story and the title of the book but I dont know why the book is called "The Catcher in the Rye", other than that the book is very interesting and I understand whats going on as I'm reading the book. Thats what I enjoy most about the book that I can actually picture in my mind what Im reading in the book.

Sincerely,

Camilo Rangel
