Write an essay for ONE of the following topics:

Essay Topic 1

John Isidore is one of the major characters in the book, but seems to present little conflict or problems. In fact the plot would change little of Isidore was not there. If this is the case what does John Isidore add to the book? Does Dick make him such such a passive main character on purpose? Why do you think it matters that he is a 'special'.
