In the book, he was taken his human right away. He couldn't have a normal life anymore at there. There was not enough food for him so he ate cockroach to save from starving. He wasn't conscious to taste it. He wanted everything that he could eat. At that time, he said that he couldn't recognize him as a human. He said that the pain from starving is felt heavier than quiting drug. I realized that the importance of food and I am very happy that I can get food anytime. I infer that the author regretted a lot in taking drug after he experienced the harsh life at the prison. I can see from the book and it reminds me that people notice an evil deed and regret it after they are taking punishment.
The food is important. However, when people are in hard situation in food, it can cause a conflict. The start of war was from occupation area which people could get more food. Insufficiency of food makes people be insane. In Africa today, people kill each other to get food. If there are enough food, those people could be saved. To actually save them, what can we do? As a country, in case of Japan, they have high skills in agriculture. They have high enough skill to put seeds in the grand of Africa where basically hard to grow crops by changing the their genes. Now, what can we do as personal? Fortunately, we are at comfortable environment than those people who are starving. Therefore, we can waste these mercy. We can't think the our comfortable life as a matter of course. We are just lackey and we must concern about the fact of people's hard situation at especially Africa.
The story reminds me the importance of food. I don't want to regret in wasting food when I am in starving.

Indeed, it is one of the things that is upsetting to all of us is to read about people who are hurting. It is hard for us to imagine that kind of life, and certainly "he" (please name him) must be regretting his crime for it put him in jail. Do you think he is being mistreated?
Is the book's theme about starvation or is it something else?
I tried the scene that cockroach lies down in front my eyes if i am really hungly as if i would die because of hunger, but but but but but!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I prefer to kill myself than eating cockroach.
I don't know that I prefer to kill myself like dai would do or not or I will just eat that cockroach. The only thing I know after reading your reading response this time is that I will not waste my food.
If cockroach appear in front my eyes, i will surely scream and confuse extremely. If i am asked what i hate most, i certain reply to insect. i feel butterfly and moth are the same.
