ReplyDeleteIn the chapter “The Arrival ”, Eddie’s soul went back to his childhood. Things in his childhood came out again. They were all from his memories. Everyone has a happy memory, no matter in a novel or in the real world. When I was a child, there was no park near our community. But it was still a lot of fun. At that time, we played soccer, hide-and-seek, toy guns and video games. The most impressive part of my childhood was playing video games. My first game console is the Nintendo NES. I played Super Mario, Contra, Tetris and other famous games on it during that time. It is really a sweet part of my memory. In Eddie’s child, maybe video games had not been invented yet, but I think the fun of childhood is absolutely the same.
