209 Words1 Page

To what extent is the novel believable? Are there any parts that are difficult to believe which and why?

In the book The Chrysalids it is a science fiction, there were some parts believable, especially the future people think that The Old People sent Tribulation and threw a nuclear bomb, therefore that caused genetic errors for example the humans, animals and plants had extra or slighter lesser parts. The characters were very believable how they acted and their personalities.

However it was inconceivable that God had sent Tribulation, because he was unsatisfied by The Old People ways. God accepts our ways no matter what he would not discriminate how we look there was no “God image” in the bible. In addition, I wasn 't convinced that people

    Absolutely, because this book is extremely short and well written. Even if you don’t have a lot of time on your hands you can just read this short book in a total of just a few hours. But is this book good for studying world history? Definitely, I have never read any other book that talks about history in this type of way. Any other history books I have read talk about specific people that were important to some scientific and technological improvements, but rarely do they ever talk about history in a way that David Christian did.

    It was slightly confusing at times, and the plot would be somewhat boring at times. Most of the characters were developed well, but some characters were confusing and seemed all over the place. The conflict, however, was very true to life, as elephant poachers do exist, and it’s apparent that the author did her research. The ending was quite bittersweet, as Date Bed had died by the time the family found her, and makes the reader unsure whether the elephants did end up making it to the Safe Place after all. There is also a lot of in-depth analysis required to fully understand the book, else the reader may get quite lost in the plot.

    To some people it is not. Some teachers say that the book is challenging for students. Now, this novel may be difficult for students, but that is how students learn new information. If students weren’t to have read harder pieces of literature all throughout their schooling career, they would stay at the same level of reading for most of their life. The reason why students should read more challenging novels are because they learn new things, and they could also learn how to act in a certain situation based on the type of challenging story they read.

    There were some portions of the movie that had never happened, but this movie helped me understand the Second Crusade better than I did before. Even with the inaccuracies in the movie, I feel like it portrayed what really happened very well. The love story may not have been real, there was a love story between Sibylla and another character in real life. The injuries that were shown in the movie may not have been realistic, but it helped add to the movie about what was going on with the fighting. The cures for injuries may not have been real, or helped but it helped show what they did have at that time in the Middle Ages.
