TSA: Essay #3

Essay three was very different than the others. This time we get to choose our own topic. I chose to use the story, The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven." The actual topic I'm comparing the story to is sleep disorder. I felt that sleep disorder compares to it exactly. The protagonist has in fact expressed sleep problems/sleep disorders. We all know relationships have their problems, but why does the character experience bad dreams? Is his sleep being affected by his relationship or is his dreams trying to tell him something? This is how I came up to use sleep disorder as the main topic; he is losing sleep because of his violent and horrible dreams.
