Zone One Reaction

At first, the book seems slow.  The descriptions are detailed and paint the scene extremely well, and characters are really introduced. As the story progresses and we start to see more and more of the world around our main character, I began to enjoy the small things. The whole picture started coming into focus and made the storytelling method much more enjoyable. Without the microscopic attention to everything in view, there would be no setting, no anticipation. I liked the way Gary was introduced and shown from the single perspective as well. It makes for a very vivid reading experience. I liked the way the zombies haven't destroyed society, but rather have just driven it in a different direction. These new implications for humankind are interesting to consider.
