Conclusion
Loveone is a very wide hypertext that
is very difficult to read, because it is very easy to get lost and not to understand
anything about the story that Judy Malloy wants to tell us. However, if we make
several readings, trying to find the meaning of the text, perhaps we will understand
what the author wants to express us with this story, and that is, the
importance of the Internet, the radical change that it has meant for any kind
of work on any issue or even for any situation.
Loveone is a
metaphor for the Internet. Thus, the text itself, it's like a big web page,
where you can enter and from there, you can access to many other pages, where
you may find what you're looking for or perhaps not; in the same way as in the
text of Loveone, that there is everything and maybe you can understand it or
maybe not.
In addition, the
story is not finished, because we do not know what happens with the
relationship between Gweneth and Gunter ... therefore
we can say that the author of the hypertext also leaves a space for the reader's
imagination.
In my opinion, I have found the text quite difficult to read, I have got lost
easily and sometimes I haven’t known how to link a text to another and the text
didn’t make any sense, so I thought I never could find the end. But then, I
read the text many times over and I found the end, and in that moment, it was
when the entire contents of Loveone started to shape. I think it is a strange
way to read, but it is very interesting, because Loveone and other types of
hypertext open new expectations in the literature, that could be some advantages
to this genre.
