What is Snowman’s decision whether to talk to human or not after going to compound?
What Crake really is like since everything comes from Jimmy’s POV?
-similar to Lost = flashbacks = more questions
- book named Oryx and Crake to reflect importance of the two characters yet telling from Jimmy’s POV shows mysterious plot
- Uncle Pete were to die first before Crake’s mother since hatred/no blood connection to Uncle Pete
- Why Crake destroy human race?
- Use Crakers to create perfect human race
- BlyssPluss pill – super virus rather than advertised anti-STD pills
- “These people are specialists,” said Crake. “They wouldn’t have the empathy to deal with the Paradice models, they wouldn’t be any good at it, they’d get impatient. Even I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t begin to get onto their wavelength. But you’re more of a generalist.” – Crake wants Jimmy to take care of Crakers since they are both lower level in intelligence than Crake
- “zero hour” at end of book – countdown towards death or beginning of life
