Essay 4

My topic of discussion for essay 4 is Misery by Stephen King. I choosed to write a position paper on the abuse Annie inflicts on Paul. Most might not think he was abused but Paul was almost seen as being tortured. She made him drink mop water with his pills, paralyzed him so he couldn't walk, and made him write stories against his will. The controversial issue could have been hostage as well but I don't view that as a standard issue. Annie was mean and cruel to Paul. She went from being a number 1 fan too the number 1 psycho. I don't believe Paul will ever be able to live a regular life knowing that there are other fans out there that feel the same way she does. His only piece comes from the satisfaction knowing that Annie is dead.
