Unravel Me

What commentary does the novel offer on these topics?

Unravel Me alternately describes hope as being essential for survival and dangerous to survival. Analyze how hope plays a role in the novel and argue whether the novel presents the emotion as more beneficial or more dangerous. Use examples from the text to support your position.

Though Juliette allies herself with Omega Point, she worries about how well-armed they are and often disagrees with Castle. Does the novel present Omega Point as an entirely good alternative to The Reestablishment, or is it framed as a “lesser evil”? Use examples from the text to support your argument.
