Synthesis of Ideas

My group members and I discussed our individual books that we read in English class and found a common factor that all of our books talk about men overpowering women. In my book, The Lovely Bones, my main character Susie Salmon (14 years old) is taken advantage of by her neighbour George Harvey. Mr. Harvey lures Susie into his underground bunker where he rapes and murders her. My other 2 group members had a similar concept so we created this sculpture of a woman in defeat with a man standing on top of her, symbolizing the men overpowering women. The human condition is that a stereotype is to think that women are weak and fragile compared to men, when that’s not the case.
