HOW I READ: LES MIS

 One thing I personally like about LES MIS is how the author has little by little revealed the Bishop's character. Three techniques Victor Hugo used to create the effects in the story are indirect characterization, foreshadowing, and figurative language. We see Hugo use indirect characterization to slowly reveal more about the Bishop character. When we started reading we really did not know anything about the Bishop but as we kept reading we kept picking up on his character through the authors indirect characterization, such things as him putting others before him and his kindness.

We don't take the time to actually question ourselves and immediately go into offense mode because "I have the right to my opinion". At the end of the day an opinion is another form of entitlement that has been engraved into our mind for many many years. What I was also able to understand was that we don't need to listen to everyone's opinion and if someone starts playing the "I am entitled to my opinion" card, we should just expect someone who is going to be close-minded aka a Karen.😀
