Reading log #6

I made a connection with the gate icon "multiple perspectives''. According to chapter 3 the author stated, " Then it was in his hand, and he looked at it carefully, but it was the same apple. Unchanged. The same size and shape: a perfect sphere. The same nondescript shade, about the same shade as his own tunic. To simply put it, Jonas observes the apple after it first appears to change in a brief and inexplicable manner during a game of catch with his friend Asher.  Its shape does not allow for imperfections and the irregularities of individual apples, an ethic that is evident in the structure of the community and in the values taught to the community's children. Jonas describes the apple's shade as nondescript, throwing an apparently innocent description of the apple's perfection into doubt with an incongruous detail. Everyone knows that apples can differ in vibrant colors and could never be described as “nondescript”.This aspect of the description foreshadows Jonas's ability to see color and in my perspective apples are all different kinds of shapes and colors and taste. ​
