THE PEEVED PEDESTRIAN

                             Ray Bradbury wrote this novel as a cry for help. He could for see what would happen if we, the people, didn't take care of our lives and just follow in line with everyone else (just cause it was the right thing to do, at the time.) I feel like he wanted to shed light on a really dark thought that everyone some had pondered about but never really felt like it could happen. Eric Blair or who he is better know as, George Orwell did the same thing with his novel 1984 (MUST READ ! it is an amazing book) his book shocked the system and made everyone realize how much of our own government could control us. 

                             Ray Bradbury's novel is written in such a way that you, the reader, learns as the character develops. He uses a technique call a Buildingsroman, and this technique deals with a person's development or spiritual education. He also involves allusions and syntax in parts of this novel to hint on people of things he finds are important and to show how the character is acting at that very moment.
