#MayCharacters @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs

3 for the price of one today so I can catch up. 😁

The Commander appears to be #Mannerly throughout a lot of this story, but his true nature is revealed before long.

Rita is a Martha in the Commander's house who is a #Marginal character in this book.

Offred #Mourns the loss of her husband, her child, and her former self.

@Eggs & @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Immanuelle Moore has carried the stains of her parents sins her entire life, her parents union was forbidden by her strict religious community of Bethel. Her father was an outsider and executed while her mother fled into the woods. Immanuelle did everything she could to fit in and and follow the rules, but she was always treated as an outsider.

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Awww sounds sad 😞 3y

Survivor: A Novel | Chuck Palahniuk
post image

I haven't read Palahniuk in awhile, but many of his characters were undoubtedly #marginal I recall Survivor was a favorite. Narrator Tender Branson (that name!) recalls his life from an airplane cockpit & how he became involved with a cult-the Creedish Church. One of the last surviving members of the cult we learn about his strange life, including a lot of housecleaning tips. When I saw Palahniuk read in KC on the tour for Haunted 👇

vivastory (referenced in his afterword in later editions on audience reaction to the story Guts) he mentioned that Survivor was in production when 9/11 happened. Most recently it would appear that half a million was raised via a Kickstarter campaign for an adaptation of Lullaby & subsequently possibly stolen by the director. #maycharacters @eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks 3y

It became a little joke in the FB Tolkien reread group that the sons of Elrond are the Peggy Schuyler of Middle Earth. They play an important role in the Born of Hope fan film but don‘t appear at all in the Peter Jackson movies. #MayCharacters #marginal

Eggs Oh this is great! 3y
JazzFeathers I still have to watch Born of Hope. I need to find time for it. 3y

@Eggs

For #marginal prompt, the touching of story of a girl born in the wrong body and her sister.
I hated the main character (the sister) and felt so bad for Luna that is not even understood and supported by her family.

#MayCharacters *9 #marginal

John Faa was the king of the Gyptians, the boat people on the margins of mainstream society (or vice versa depending on your point of view).

Pickpick

It all starts when six kids have to meet for a weekly chat--by themselves, with no adults to listen in. There, in the room they soon dub the ARTT Room (short for "A Room to Talk"), they discover it's safe to talk about what's bothering them--from poverty to incarcerated parent to deportation—all things that make them a #marginal group #maycharacters @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
