Changing My View

This week’s readings I really enjoyed. I had a lot of fun reading about Hank’s adventures to rescue the damsels. I knew that there had to be some catch but I thought that something was going to happen to him; not her turn out to be a little loony.
My views of Hank have definitely changed over these chapters. At first I thought that he would end up a good guy but was motivated by his own thoughts of supremacy. But now, I realized that he does actually care about the people and does have feelings. The main part that changed my views of him was when he was in the castle and freed the men and women that had been trapped in the dungeon of the queen. I thought that she was crazy and cruel for doing what she was doing but as Hank points out, she was brought up that way and does not know any better.
I do not know if I was reading too much into the book but I felt that the whole nature vs. nature could have been a political statement. I could be completely wrong because I never notice those types of influences but I thought that that could be taken that way.
In the end I love this book and I cannot wait to find out what Twain has in store for us.
