    When I first started this book I had an idea that it was going to be really emotional and the boy was depressed for reasons because of home life, or just a sickness he couldn’t understand. But when it started out as such raw thoughts of a male teenage boy, I was completely caught off guard by how honest it was. It started out with his thoughts about the bathroom doors and the fact that he likes that he could lock himself in there if he wants to be alone. That alone speaks volumes about his personality. And then when his mother was talking to him and you could tell that they do not have a close relationship. She seems absent minded about his behavior. And the fact that he is putting his hands up girl’s shirt on the bus also says he has no filter as to right and wrong and thinks that that is okay to do. So overall the first pages of the book took me very much by surprise. It’s scary when he starts to discuss all the ways he has tried to kill himself and why they haven’t worked. My group and I decided that these suicide thoughts have been going on for quite some time If he is still considering killing himself after so many failed attempts.…

    Within this particular interactive oral, the idea of whether the hell in No Exit is represented or disregarded as a theological Christian hell was presented upon us. Throughout time, the Christian hell has been depicted as a fiery, unforgiving place, as shown in the bible verses, Matthew 13:49b-50, “The angles will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing teeth” and Revelation 19:20b, “The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur”. This theological hell has also been seen as place of separation from god and restlessness. At first glance, the hell in No Exit differs from a classic Christian theological hell in many ways.…

    Deviance, social sanctions, and the control theory are other sociological concepts observed in the film. Deviance depicts an action that disobeys social norms. Every character in the film is seen as deviant by either their actions that forced them into detention, or executed actions during the detention. For example, Claire is deviant because she skips class so she can go shopping, and during detention, she instigates a relationship with John. Allison appears in detention because she was bored on a Saturday, and during detention, she steals Brian’s wallet. Andrew is deviant when he smokes since he is a varsity-lettered wrestler.

    Anything the narrator decides to do portrays the way we look at his on how he is supposed to react with the survival situation that he is placed in. You can pretty much say that the secondary characters in the novel both helped and others just simply pushed the main character back even farther from what he is supposed to do. If anything, they also helped create originality for how the narrator is supposed to get through the problems he is faced…
