Prompt 3

Recently I've learned a lot about the characters in the book. I noticed a lot about Guy's wife Mildred. Her actions towards Guy show no love or emotions of a true relationship. She showed no sympathy for him when he was sick, doesn't support his interest of books, and almost exposed him in front of his boss. It almost seems like they are just a two people living together, and not actually husband and wife. Even more interesting is what I learn about Mildred and her friends when they hung out. Guy turned off the TV and forced them to actually have conversion. It made Mildred and her friends extremely uncomfortable and they didn't know how to react. This shows me the lack of normal human emotions and relationship skills of Mildred and it seems the majority of society. Guy's character is developing though. He sees the importance of books now, and seems to be pushing for a more meaningful and thought provoking society. He wants conversation, he wants disagreements, and he wants knowledge. This character development of Guy really reveals the flaws of others in the story and moves the plot along well.
