Re: Book club - November discussion for Watership Down!!!

Yes, and Holly's recounting of it was really good and one of the most gripping parts of the story! I thought that was done just as well too if not better at Cowslip's warren. I knew something was off, partly because of how perfect everything seemed and partly because of Fiver, but when it all came together it was like oh shit!

DA I always found Cowslip's warren more horrifying, especially when I read it as a kid. Efrafa is brutal but in its way it's a more ... overt, honest brutality? It's a military dictatorship. But the Snare Warren just felt more ... insidious. The way they just pretended nothing was happening, that they were willing to allow some of their own to die to be safe and well-fed. I'm not sure exactly why it felt worse than Efrafa to me, it just did.

Yes, it did to me as well. Efrafa was overt, and most outsiders could recognise it and take steps against it, either to fight it or to run. The Snare Warren was more like a carnivorous plant baited with nectar. I really felt for Strawberry this time around; it hadn't really hit me before that his partner had been snared.

His doe was snared? I missed that. Woooow. :(

It isn't said in so many words, but he was deeply distressed when he joined the Sandleford rabbits, and actually spoke about the snares - and later on, someone, I think it was Hazel, said that his doe had stopped running. I finally put two and two together this time around.

I can definitely see that! It was really fucking creepy and sinister.
