I am starting to enjoy this book more as I read it. In class, we discussed the possibility of Erica being a symbol or a physical form of America, but I disagree. I think that there is really no point in that theory. I see how maybe later on in the book there could be a point of interest, but from what I have read, I don't believe that could be so. I also find that there could be a deeper meaning to this conversation

I find it odd that Changez is going so in-depth with this conversation, including personal things. It feels like a movie when a character knows he is in checkmate and feels he has to share everything. Or he knows he has the opposing person in a vulnerable position, so he can take advantage of the time he has because he controls the situation. I still think that this story may have a strong point behind it.

I’m interested in Changez, but not in a specific way. He’s a character I’m still trying to understand, and I’m not sure how I feel about him yet. He seems genuine, but almost too kind, which makes me question his intentions. Because of the situation he’s in, he may feel pressured to act this way. At the same time, he kind of annoys me. I’m hoping that as I keep reading, I’ll figure him out more.
