TMD Preface Comparision Post

I think the most useful information that we used to gain a deeper understanding of the books was understanding the background of the character like Invisible man. In invisible man it helped understanding the time period of when it was taken place. Also the background of the author. I think that the knowing the background of the author plays a big part of the book like The Great Gatsby. In the Great Gatsby there were many love affairs which was similar to the Fitzgerald's life because his wife had an affair on him.
