Chapter 2

 

Was what Bigger heard about rich whit people really true? Was he going to work for people like they saw in the movies?

 

Okay bigger finally makes a decision whether he’s going to take the job or dig up 20 to spend on a movie to help ease his growing fears of robbing old blum. Him and Jack met up and went to the movie theater, and they masturbate while watching it and thinking of their girlfriends. After that, they discuss Bigger’s upcoming job interview with Mr.dalton. Bigger was so stupid he said he would rather go to jail than take a job through the relief agency. Then all of a sudden this newsreel begins,  showing the young daughter of wealthy families playing on the beach in Florida. The thing that really caught bigger’s ,eye was Mary Dalton as she kisses a handsome man, well know as radical.

 

Analysis:

In this chapter, I see that most popular cultures serves as a release for bigger away to help him forget his misery but that it also serves as a form or inoctrination.
