Final Unwind
In this blog I will be talking about pages 287- 335 in the book "Unwind" written by Neal Shusterman. Right upon arrival at the Jack Happy's harvest camp Roland gets unwound. When he is being taken to the "chop shop" or where the kids get unwound, he really shows his true colors. He has to be forced to walk down to the chop shop by a bunch of guards and the whole time he is yelling and screaming saying he doesn't deserve this. This is much different then the Roland we know because in the book he has always been the strong, brave, vicious, evil bully. Meanwhile at the Chop Shop Lev shows up. Lev, now being apart of the clan, is on a mission to blow up the chop shop. He has explosives in his blood stream and it will be detonated from a clap, the are called clappers. This really shows that Lev feels that his life is dead-end because he is doing a suicide mission for a cause that he isn't even sure about. Then it goes to Connor because its his turn to get unwound. This shows his true colors too because unlike Roland he walked down to the chop shop without any restraints because he wanted to save some dignity. He went the brave way and everybody saw how brave he was. Risa, who was put into a band that plays on the roof of the chop shop, sees Connor coming and immediately bursts into tears. However, she can't do anything about it. As Connor is going in, Lev and his team run in and blow the place, except lev doesn't clap because he sees Connor. "Lev turns to see where the man is pointing. Coming out of the ruined glass doors of the Chop Shop is Connor." (Shusterman 311). I refuse to be a man who ruins endings of books and such for people. So to know what happens you're gonna have to read yourself. Genzino out.
