From my point of view Klosterman relates zombies to our daily lives. He is suggesting to us that we need to challenge ourselves to think better about how we deal with fear of rejection. The author is comparing monsters to humans. It is symbolizing obstacles and problems we have in our daily lives and that we deal with monsters everyday. I found it to be a very interesting article to read. I think it is very true and honest, how the author uses words from the past to compare modern day times.
The author states “Zombies are like the internet and the media and every conversation we don’t have” (Kolsterman 40).
In the book “My Zombie, Myself: Why Modern Life Feels Rather Undead by Chuck Klosterman he thinks that the overall comparison of dead zombies to the reality of ourselves. With our own reality we feel dead like a zombie if we are not active. Zombies have been steadily rising in popularity for the past 40 years.
