The Invention of Morel and 'Lost'

This week we have been talking about science fiction. we read part of The Invention of Morel for Monday and for tomorrow's class we read the reast of it. I found that the rest of the story took a bit of a turn. Just when you thought you knew what was going on it made a turn into something completely different. This was interesting because in the episode of Lost that we watched there were like flashbacks from John's past which seemed to explain things that were happening at that moment. Since I have watched Lost before and know the series well I understood the episode more than someone who does not know what was going on. I think that even if you don't know the series this episode had many similarities to the book and was a great way to relate the book to something that is so popular at this time. I am interested in hearing how the others in our class related to the story and show and to hear their reactions to the idea of reality in these.
