Week Four Number Two

As a child Marijane saw herself to be very religious and modern. Aspects such as revolution and the influence of her parents cultivate the characters identity to lead her to follow different pathways. Another key aspect of the story is how a theocracy turns a religious girl into a state of rebellion against school, society, family and country. In the beginning of the story we see the involvement of Marijane's mother in the Islamic revolution which results in her mother dying her hair. Therefore events as such mad Marijane also want to pursue and follow her family's involvement. The actual year of the revolution the reader can see how Marijane becomes so involved that she puts her believe of her prophetic destiny aside and takes actions which show her interests in external events. In addition when the Rex Cinema burns down once again we see the rage in Marijane and how she is forbidden. That night the character doesnt get to talk to her god like figure friend which is the key cause of the characters lost of faith. Furthermore it was not intent for Marijane to be interested in such adult like situations but whenever she would like to do child like things such as playing Monopoly her parents where always too distracted by the outside world that cultivated her to participate and do the same. All, in all, changes and situations as such were the root cause of the overall character transformation of Marijane.
