The Dinner of Trimachio
It took me a while to read this story of Trimachio. It was interesting but I didn't enjoy it that much because it was so long. I felt really disgusted of how much food and wine they consumed. Along with that, in chapter 49 when they talked about gutting the hog, I almost about puked. The servants were treated so poorly by Trimachio and they were getting blamed for so many things. Most of the time Trimachio was drunk so he would say bizarre things and wanted his servants to be tortured for ridiculous reasons. It's sickening to think that people ate like him and i'm sure there are people now that binge eat but not as extreme.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who didn't enjoy reading it. I found it very long as well and almost repetitive. I'm glad its over haha
ReplyDeleteI totally agree it was very long and I found myself easily getting side tracked!!
ReplyDeleteI agree as well that it was long I really struggled getting into the reading
ReplyDeleteIt definitely was super long and I found myself wondering when they were going to get to the point of the whole thing.
