The Lazarus Project

Well, the first thing I thought was about the bible, and really the only thing I know about the story is that Lazarus was raised from the dead, but looking into it there is another Lazarus story about a un named rich man and a beggar named Lazarus, which I think is what this is going to turn into, but we shall see which one it actually relates too. After reading this first section I have yet to decide if I enjoy reading this story, which means usually I wouldn't even finish it. If I don't get into a story right off the bat I typically just throw it away. I mean I really want something to catch my eye right away. The way Hemon writes is very descriptive and takes away from my visual creativity of a story which might be the reason why I'm not that into it. Also it seems like he is writing this for a movie, or play... This Chief is this story is a very paranoid sole, I feel that he feel threaten by anyone around, not just this poor immigrant that he killed when he knocked on the door.. I understand that this is a pretty short blog today, but i don't really have much to say on this yet, I just didn't find it that interesting
