1) Perpetual flames are most commonly associated with hell. Yet, LeDuff continuously asserts that the people of detriot are good willed---but must suffer through hell. What does LeDuff's hell filled with heavenly people, say about Detriot, the world and the effects of environment on the way a society behave?
2) Keeping with the theme of fire. LeDuff draws irony by claiming Detriot is in perpetual flames, but also notes that the politicians call the firemen lazy. In this sense, the politicians are the real lazy firemen. LeDuff's half-call to action--half criticism, draws a sense of irony. Who is the real firemen for the detriot, a city set to flames a multitude of times?
3) Joy Road was not so joyous. Was does the road's nomenclature reveal about the previous state of Detroit( It was named after an individual, but it still remains ironic)?
