Paper Topic Discussion, continued
Hey guys. I have a question concerning my paper. My topic, as I presented in class, is going to be investigating Lemon Sap addiction in Cherie Priest's Clockwork Century Series and its implications on society. I then wish to compare it to contemporary addictions and unhealthy habits that many people currently struggle with. I was wondering if I should only pick the novels that had most incidence of the drug and its effects on its users or try to find evidence of it in all of the books in the series? Boneshaker is a good book to describe how the drug came about due to the events that took place in Seattle. Also, I thought Dreadnought did a good job of describing what happens to the people who use Sap. I can't really think of many instances where it was brought up in Clementine , and I'll have to go back and look at Ganymede. Should I just stick with the first two, then?

Sounds like a really interesting topic. I would probably stick to those two works.
ReplyDeleteGanymede took a pretty good look at some of the results of addiction to the sap. All the zombies infesting New Orleans. I would probably make reference to it, although focus primarily on the first two.
ReplyDeleteIf you can get enough material, the first two should be fine.
