Delirium Chapter 21 Summary

How It All Goes Down

  • Today, Lena is going with Alex to the Crypts, an asylum for criminals with deliria. Also, it's supposedly where Lena's mother lives now.
  • Lena recalls a time she went there in second grade, on a Scared Straight-style field trip. It was gross and dark and scary.
  • Alex pretends to be a guard and leads her through the hallways of the Crypts.
  • They stop to visit Alex's dad along the way. And by dad, we mean tombstone in a courtyard with his dad's name on it. A moment of silence, if you will.
