We have finished A Raisin in the Sun. For this blog post, you can address anything about the book that interests you, whether we have discussed in class or not.
I think it's interesting how Walter wanted to be successful so badly that he never really took time to listen to others and analyze the risk he was taking with the money. Throughout the book he is warned not to trust shady people and not invest in the liquor store by pretty much his whole family. He was so dissatisfied with his current situation that he saw gambling with the family's money as the only way he could live up to the expectations of the "man of the house". I wonder how the book would of ended if the venture had worked out. Would Walter feel like he had finally proved himself?
