Macondo ends because Usurla dies? Reason she decides to live through rain and senility? Sacrifices dignity and comfort for Macondo #martyr?

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

I don't know much about La Violencia, but I feel like Marquez based the war on it; thoughts?

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Sense that violence can't be for a good cause; good causes must be erased if violence can't otherwise end #pacifisim? #cycleofwar

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Treaty concessions mean the war was "just for power?" Buendia and his comrades must damn themselves to save everyone else? #martyrs?

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Ursula's transformation into a "toy" for young children is interesting; loss of #dignity or endless #devotion to her family?

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Mirror=town because towns cease to exist when their inhabitants leave, and mirror images cease when what they reflect leaves #transience

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

@sgombar1 Not to mention that she outlives all the other characters of her generation, and the town basically dies with her.

Connection between this novel and "As You Like It?" Both about former aristocrats hoping to regain their status.

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

The South won the Civil War and then voluntarily abolished slavery because they were so noble! #JeffCoSchoolBoardHistory

Allen takes his essay from other American writers a satire on lineage/inheritance? #ownership #deserving

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Hawley's win is Murullo and Taylor's loss #capitalism #zerosum #deadlycompetition #ironfist behind the #invisiblehand

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Murullo and Hawley's dueling lineages #class #AmericanDream is #inherited? #statueoflimitations for inheritance?

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Twist on theme from #EastofEden-- battle between #good and #evil is entirely internal #self Good only puts up a fight in defeat #fatalistic

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Hawley's comments about black and Italian communities' loyalty #projection? Trying not to see others as #morallyconsistent?

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Not sure how to feel about portrayal of Murullo. Steinbeck has a weird relationship with #immigrants #Lee #EastofEden

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

If the government takes our guns, how can we fight the mutants? #JeffCoSchoolBoardHistory #nra

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Jesus didn't hire immigrants until they learned English #JeffCoSchoolBoardHistory

Addie seems to blame herself more than Anse for their painful marriage #agency #personalresponsibility #bizarreempowerment

[Andrew Soboeiro @soboeiro347]

Anse gets "them teeth" and a new wife at the same time. Means that he consumes the women in his life? #Addie'swrinkles
