“Being There’ Review The ” Being There’ Review Essay, Research Paper The book “Being there’ is written by Jerzy Kosinski, and first I would like to write that this was almost the best book that I have read. It was written in a, sort of mysterious way. I myself didn’t really find out if the main character, Chance, was intelligent or not, if he understood what situation he was involved in or if he acted the way he did, only because he didn’t know better. The main character is a gardener in a house he has never been outside. If Chance isn’t in the garden, he is in his room watching television or does something else, alone.
He has no contact with the outer world than through the television. Kosinski describes his situation by a wall between the garden and the street: nobody can see what’s going on on the other side, and nobody cares. Not even the sound reaches through the wall. With other words: Chance lives in his own world and he doesn’t bother. One day, his master dies and Chance has no employer anymore.
Where is he going now? Nobody knows and Chance doesn’t care. He stays as long as he can in the house, but when a lawyer asks him to leave he just takes his stuff and walk out in the street. And if I remember right, he recognizes it from the television and he doesn’t worry at all. He just walks and waits for something to happen. And it does. When he is about to pass the street, a limousine hits him and he injures one leg.
