Augustus asks if Isaac feels better, and he says, “No.” If pain demands to be felt, why didn’t Isaac’s destruction of the trophies make him feel better?

Answers

Answer:

Because, though, pain demands to be felt it can not be avoided.

Explanation:

'The Fault in Our Stars' is a novel written by John Green. The novel revolves around the life of a sixteen-year-old Hazel Grace and seventeen-year-old Augustus Gus. They both are suffering from terminal illness- cancer and tumor and fell in love with each other.

In Chapter 4, when Isaac was left by his girl friend, Monica, he feels imense pain. In most part of the novel, characters deal with pain and loss, and tries to figure out how to express them. The phrase 'pain demands to be felt' is taken from the book Hazel and Augustus were reading- An Imperial Affliction.

The destruction of trophies did not make Isaac feel better, because breaking trophies was a way of expressing that he was feeling painful and hurt. Though pain demands to be felt, it can not be avoided.
