The Post-Apocalyptic World of Tom Perrotta in The Leftovers

Written By: Missy Ortiz


I'm sure everyone is missing The Leftovers during this off-season, but for me, there is no off-season. Even while in school, I find ways to incorporate our favorite show into my classes. This semester, I was assigned a literary analysis paper that was for a major grade, and I was allowed to choose my own topic. Without question, I chose Tom Perrotta's The Leftovers book. Now, don't get me wrong, this assignment was tough, even though I love the book. Either way, I gave it my all and submitted it. This weekend, I received feedback on it and my final grade...I got an A! Bestowing excitement and joy, I would love to share it with my fellow Lefties. A little something to read to help us get by until Season 3 starts production... Enjoy!
