In Darkness Summer Entry #3

“I have no name. There are no names in the darkness cos there is no one else, only me, and I already know who I am (I am the voice in the dark, calling out for help), and I have no questions for myself and no need to call upon myself for anything, except to remember. I am alone. I am dying” (Lake 1-2). This section on the text “hooks” the reader because you want to read on to find out the things or ideas he is calling upon to remember, and you want to read on to find out his name. Throughout the whole first and second page you don’t learn his name and at the point in the book I am right now I still haven’t come across the name of our character, but keep in mind that I haven’t finished the book yet so I probably will not know his name until the end of his book.
