I just didn't get that until halfway through the work.Sri Korrapatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10958284116060050787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953690364532718935.post-2230772039222046722016-01-16T21:57:54.518-06:002016-01-16T21:57:54.518-06:00I always thought it was interesting that his name ...I always thought it was interesting that his name was "The Underground Man." Like I have mentioned in class, i thought he legitimately lived underground. I did not understand it was metaphorical. I pictured him as an old grouchy man who just hated the world because he did not get what he wanted out of life. UM is a grouchy man, I wouldn't say old, but it's not because he did not get what he wanted out of life, it is because he has made himself miserable with the life he gave himself. I think that a better name could have been thought of, like "The Cynical Man" or something like that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01320390744004009112noreply@blogger.com
