It could be anyones. Whats important is not the text but what it implies when juxtaposed with the title.<br /><br />Even in the case of the 'person' chosen, the details given about her life insinuate a sense of mediocrity and unfulfilment.<br /><br />If you look at what she studied, how she did in school and college, and her work history, you might be able to guess at the distance between childhood dreams and adult reality.<br /><br />The student of Geography would probably prefer to not be waitress, receptionist or 'Junior Assistant Manager'. She probably enjoys more than 'team sports' in her free time. But she is trapped. A prisoner of her need for money and a lack of oppurtunity. A prisoner of identity. A prisoner of capitalism? A prisoner of reality.Maru Marauderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05611248910699141031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23572882.post-25194217230279501612010-08-31T05:59:13.308-07:002010-08-31T05:59:13.308-07:00Creative use of writing.
