After reading the story, I realized that the tile was not so much about looking for an apartment, but rather about ?hunting?. The author took an everyday event like looking for an apartment, and made a statement about over-population and radical bureaucracy. It had me wondering from the beginning ?Where is this story going? Obviously, it kept my interest, and kept me reading. The whole story was outrageous, but that is what I enjoyed about it. It is obvious that the author is trying to make a point about where society is possibly heading, and how society could turn out in the future. I wondered what kind of society this was, and I was surprised to find near the end that it was based in America. Within a few paragraphs, the story went from a two people looking for an apartment, to two people ready to kill another person to get an apartment. I felt that the story was well written, and the way it was presented, got my attention immediately.

We looked at him, wondering how he knew about the cat. This was a striking line because items in life now revolve around money, and this man clams that in order to acquire this cloth all you need to do is to love.read more. One part that struck me, in the small caption that I read, was when the old man declared, in the sentence at the bottom on the first page, ?You can only buy my cloth with love,? he said. I think the old man is trying to renew profound values (that many people forget over time) to this young couple. The mysterious old man is willing to give away his white cloth only on the condition that the couple will continue loving each other in the future.
