Very analytical and interesting.

- read for class
- orangutan ending seemed random asf, but when one thinks about the symbolism behind it one can see that the randomness was needed in order to symbolize the prejudice and otherness that caused the people of the town to act the way they did
- themes of us v. them, the people v. the city, natives v. foreigners
- beginnings of the “tortured genius” and the detective monologue
