Writers Blog Post: Q's 1-4 pg. 175

1. Heather Havrilesky's main insight about Mad Men is isolation.  She sees these characters as struggling to find themselves as depicted in the fifth paragraph.
2. Heather Havrilesky establishes her  authority to write about this show by quoting specific scenes as well as in the seventh paragraph depicting a character development throughout season one to season four.  By doing so, it tells the reader that the author is well versed in her topic of choice.
3. She appeals to readers' emotions in the very beginning of the paper by referring to the isolation that so many face, as depicted in her claim of people seeking an unattainable American dream.
4. Yes, she peeked my interest about the show due to the in-depth nature of the human psyche that it could possibly present.
