While reading Twilight, I found a culture different than mine. This culture is none other than vampire culture. Vampires live differently than normal people. For example, Edward's family is more open than most with his mind-reading and Alice's visions. Yet another example is that of the lives of James and Victoria. James and Victoria live differently in that they are constantly on the move and rarely stay in the same place. James and Victoria are also staggeringly different than us because they drink blood. By putting two very different families like that of Edward's and that of James' it brings up ideas like different cultures even within our own culture. It brings up that maybe each family has a different culture of its own. That there are millions of cultures out there waiting to be recognized.Meyer, Stephenie. Twilight.
