Parable of the Sower

Hello my name is Vanessa I am currently attending California State University of Los Angeles. Due to my professor Jenny Hicks, I got introduced to this interesting book. The parable of the Sower awarded me of two things that I had not realized until I read this book. Through Laurens daily life it showed me how bad the environment was. It was really hard to survive in their environment and you had to really make the best out of things because each day that passed it only got worst for Lauren. Lauren is a very smart character in this book and she knows how to survive in her world, a world that was described like dystopia. Through Laurens techniques to survive it also made me realize that being a woman in her environment was really hard. In the book women were seen as powerless, and week. One of the reason's why it brought that idea to me was for the reason that Lauren traveled dressed as a man to survive in her world. The Parable of the sower is a really good book because it can relate to our own environment and it awarding us of what can happen in the future if we keep this up. If we keep letting other people treat our environment bad and not letting others be aware of what is going on with our environment our world can turn out to be just like Laurens which is in my opinion dystopia. I highly recommend this book and for those who haven't read it , you really should besides it being very knowledgeable it is filled with thrill and excitement!!:D
