Death And Carnage Great Interest One
552 wordsI think that the reason why Robert Swindelles in his novel "Brother In The Land" had an too great interest in morbidity, maybe an TOO great interest in it, was because of the background of nuclear weapons and how they have increased in damage and size. The thing which could motivate him was the background and this probably disturbs him, or that death and carnage was in the news a lot growing year by year.
