The best Qoute I found Interesting in Chapter 2

"Irony is delicious and distasteful, soft and savage. Irony is not to be trifled with its very essence was that it could never be predicted." (vea,30)

This is significant because it reveals what irony is meant to be in this particular novel. The irony is presented in the jury. Every one in the jury acted in irony. Can this be in the real world?

1. Why do you think people use irony? For what purpose does it require. Is it good or bad when is revealed?
2.If you were being judge in court for a crime that you didn't commit and that there was sure they will convict you no matter what, would you escape to freedom fighting the authories or just give up and go to jail. Provide real life experience to suppor your answer.
This is for my group members only

Irony happens, too, it's not always intentional. Most of the time, it IS ironic BECAUSE it was NOT intentional. People are sarcastic (a kind of irony) to evoke a reaction; sometimes they do it to make people laugh or to make people look critically at themselves. If someone doesn't recognize that another person is speaking ironically, then it can usually make another feel badly when they realize their mistake.
