And then people WORE those hats! That was where the expression, Mad as a Hatter came from. They went crazy pretty quickly. But the people who wore those hats . . . well, it must have had an effect. Imagine on a hot day sweating underneath your fancy hat. The hat soaks up the sweat. The fabric around the Mercury becomes damp. Not a good outcome, I fear. Not saying that that made him insane. It's just there are a lot of people who seemed ok when they were young, gradually got crazy as they grew older. And there were many toxins around which no one knew about.
That's very interesting. Lot of people don't know much about the Compte de Sade who was the father of the Marquis de Sade. Well he was an anti-royalist and an amp spoken professor of republicanism for France. He said""Une revolution sociale est fonde sur un renovation mental."that means that you change society you must change the way people think. However my friend that's like having a gun. You can use that gun for good or you can use it for evil.
It is hands down the greatest coming-of-age story of all time, and to this day the only story that's actually accurately described what it was like to be 15-16. I love the first book! And I’m now reading the sequel.
Everyone defending this book hasnt really read it. In it, they literally talk about masterbation. I have to read it this unit because its required for my 10th grade english class.

@@susannehartl3067 First Satre book I've read, but I've seen 'No Exit' on RUclips (though it's old)... B&N is pretty unremarkable now, but I just started, and I've been reading Existentialists for a long time Seventh Dostoevsky (I like The Possessed/The Demons and The Double) Gogol's short stories are good (Vly was good, and another whose name I forgot about a Devil haunting a house)
@@susannehartl3067 well I last night I was reading the face of another by M Kóbo. Àbe, and it's really good and I recommend it and also his book called The ark Sakura.
@@susannehartl3067 Kobo Abe is the author and he has a lot of great books starting with the woman in the dunes, the ruined map, the face of another, kangaroo notebook which is short stories, and my favorite the ark Sakura
Mr. Saenz's book is poignant, gripping and beautiful. Thank you for giving his work the credit it deserves. What a lovely interview.
This book is so beautiful! As a mom of 3 boys, I fell in love with the boys, as well as their parents! Thank you, Mr. Alire Saenz!
I just read the sequel and it is just as beautifully written and moving!!
@@LindaLadden I’m just 12 but I love this book, it’s amazing , although it takes me a few hours to finish(my second time reading)

Robespierre
You know Robespierre was the architect of "The Great Terror" in the French Revolution (and was in fact a tyrant)

Exactly but how do you do that? You can't duct tape people to

Don't be gullible people. Book banning has become a marketing ploy to promote books most people wouldn't even consider to pick up.
A certain group of people shouldn’t have gone and tried to ban books then

You have to amend or add to Number 2 ... "rich minorities will get priority over poor white people"
And what book have you read lately?

being a parent in the current times is difficult enough without the Democrats trying to convince my son that he's a girl.
you better read more. GOP convinces you DEMS are bad. More crime in red states because on lax gun laws. Turn off Fox for 1 week.
What a freaking ridiculous comment 🙄
wtf are you talking about??

@@susannehartl3067 I love to read. Unfortunately due to the current economy I don't have the time. I'm working 2 jobs to keep things going.
