Vendeta part 2

From page 143 through 147 i got a little bit confused, i didn't know if she was dreaming because she was knocked out or what was that. She sees her father and then the drawing representing the man changes and she ends up in bed with him and a mother figure comes in, it is very confusing. The room she is in looks like the room from the priest, the bed and the color s the same, that is why i think it is a dream but it is not sure.
And well, it was nice of Gordon to give her a place to stay in, but the whole sleeping with Evey, well, it kinda bothers me. It reminded me of the priest and his pedophilia.
I really liked the part on page 188, where they show a girl writing the V symbol on the wall, how she looks up to V, meaning that soon a change will come to society.
When V dies and she wants to take of the mask several images appear on what V's face would look like, but they all change, I wasn't sure but i think she was imagining all the possibilities and realizing that she actually took the mask off the meaning of V would diminish. I really liked how V was training Evey in order to take his place and she does, and i thought it was hilarious how she picks up a guy and starts with him the same way V started with her, because you can't kill V, you can't kill an idea.
I really liked it.

yeah, I'm pretty sure that 143-147 was all a dream. it seems to encompass most everything that has had a dramatic impact on Evey which is likely to be lodged in the subconcious which from what i learned in psychology is where dreams come from. It's kind of a disturbing dream though, yeah.

i really liked the sequencing of the last part because it really explains to the reader WHY she doesn't reveal his face and gives him a viking's funeral... i love it... so cynical and masterful really..
