Damage: Part 2


I am so livid after finishing the book. I cannot believe that Martyn was the one that had the most awful consequence when he did absolutely nothing wrong. I wanted the narrator to be exposed so that Martyn, Ingrid and the entire family would know the truth. Anna is such a cold-hearted woman. I do not feel bad for her for one second because after Martyn dies she literally just walks away from the situation and goes on with her life. She is able to find love again and have children and sadly Martyn dies too early to experience any of these great moments. Why would anyone give Anna the joy of having children.She only cares about herself so how can she love her children and teach them right from wrong?





Its sad to even begin to believe that this happens in real life, but it does. I'm happy that the Ingrid let the narrator "have-it" and she told him that he should have died. She really tries to make him feel guilty and makes it known that it was all his and Anna's fault. The narrator should have known that this wouldn't turn out could but he was to consumed with Anna that he blocked the warnings off.





What made me even more angry was the little if no respect he had for his own blood, his son. As if having an affair with his sons future-wife wasn't bad enough he meets her the night before her wedding. Like really? it is a tradition that the groom not see his bride the until the wedding day so I feel that Anna and the narrator take advantage of that... DISGUSTING! Now he must live with this fateful day. Although it seems like it doesn't take such a told on his life because he explains that he hurt for the loss of his son and also the loss of Anna in his life. CAN ANYTHING HAPPEN IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS MAN SEE THAT WHAT HE WAS DOING WAS WRONG???? I don't care what anyone says there are better ways to go about a situation and the narrator was just greedy and selfish in my eyes, as well as Anna.



To make me feel even more disgusted by him, he has a huge picture of his son in his home and who else??? ANNA?!!! I do not know what is wrong with him. It just goes to show how strong our emotions can get and how they can over take us into such a world that we neglect everything else around us and the only thing that may help us snap out of it is the ultimate tragedy!
