The Emotions in By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept

By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept, written by Elizabeth Smart is a novel about a women's overwhelming love for a man. A love for a man who is already married. The woman lets her love for this man overtake her life, and when it ends she is devastated and heart-broken.

By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept, largely reminds me of the quote, "Blinded by Love." The woman in this novel is so in love with this man that she won't stop and think about how unfaithful he is, or how he can't be trusted at all. She refuses to listen to her parents and all the other people who tell her that she's better off without him, and how later on she would have regretted breaking up a marriage. She is so "blinded by love" that she doesn't think that she would ever regret anything.

However, the most interesting aspect I found about By Grand Central Station I SatDown and Wept, is how closely someone in a recent breakup can relate to it. One of my best friends had just broken up with her boyfriend when she read this book. She fell in love with the book because she could relate to many of the feelings of heartbreak that the woman in the book was feeling. She told me she read it a second time because it helped her to realize that other people go through the same kind of loneliness that she was going through at the time. She kept waiting for him to walk through her door, just as the woman in this book also does. I believe it is the overwhelming emotions in this book that allowed her to feel so connected to the main character in this book. The emotions that this woman is experiencing are so vivid that it is easy to be able to relate to her, and her feelings.

Love is a strange thing. One second it is an instant high, and the next it is an instant low, which is the case in By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept. You can be extremely happy one second, and then the next second devastated. I know everyone experiences love and heartbreak at some point during their lives, and perhaps it is because of this that we are able to relate to the book. This book reminds me that love has no direction, it doesn't matter who you are or what you want, you can never control love or what happens concerning it. For those, who have already experienced heartbreak, this book brings back all those feelings. It did for my friend, my roommate, and myself. It is so strong when you are reading it that you can't help but to recall back to when you went through it. However, I also think that this book makes you want to control your own life, or at least it did in my case. The woman in this book got herself into a bad situation, and to some degree she had to realize what she was getting herself into. Everyone is in charge of his or her own life, and this book made me realize that my own life is in my hands. It is my decision whether to do something that makes me happy or something that may cause pain. We are all in charge of our own lives, and By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept, really made me realize this, and the extent to which we can control our own happiness.

In conclusion, By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept, is a novel that shows the intense feelings involved with love as well as the despair that surfaces after that love ends. It shows its readers the miracle of love, and involves them so strongly in the emotions of the story that it takes them back to their own previous loves. This novel is one, which can either amaze or terrify any reader. It can amaze the reader with the intense feelings involved with love, or terrify them of the hurt that may occur afterwards. Either way, By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept is so emotionally-driven that it can bring any reader into the story, and allow them feel what the woman in the story is feeling as well.
