The Island

How do these texts explore similar themes?


Well in the book most of the words said involve the stranger that washed up on shore on The Island. The first thing they thought is that he was different. An outsider. The colors and the text go great with each other because the colors give you that gloomy dark feeling while the text tells you why the darkness. They put him in a goat pen and told him to stay there. Treated him like an animal.

Why do people make distinctions between "us" and "them".

"Us" as in the townspeople and "Them" as in the strange man who washed up on shore.
