Nader Hakim blog #4/14

"she reached out and up, doing it slowly, willing her reach to be long enough. It wasn't."


Reach! reach is a word that can mean two totally opposite things which are freedom and imprisonment. for example, if the policemen catch up with him and reach him its the end of him, that's imprisonment. An example of freedom would be if i can reach the key on that table I'm out of here. In the book it uses the word reach to achieve both meanings, because the girl is stuck under something and if she can reach the edge she would be able to break free. But she didn't! The image I chose is an image that shows that the two people are trying so hard to get their hand's together but couldn't reach.
