“The End was in the
Beginning” (571).
What
a crazy end to an amazing story! The battle at the end of the story brings an
awesome climax to a story that already was full of suspense. The line “The end
was in the beginning” is very interesting, but true. The story begins with him
talking about the events at the end of the story, and ends the same way. This
story seems very usable on AP Timed Writes due to its vast range of topics. The
main character has so many things happen to him and is forced to change over a
rapid period of time. I loved this book when I read it the first time, and I
loved it again the second time. I noticed that, it wasn’t until the end that
the narrator experienced a sense of finality in life. Throughout the entire
novel, he was always looking for something, whether it was honor (at the
beginning), an education (at the university), or a job. It wasn’t until he
decides to go into hiding, that he experiences a sense of contentedness with
the state of his life. It makes sense that his sense of self-assurance stems
from the peace he feels from being in hiding.
Erik,
did you like this book? I enjoyed it a lot, and I want to know how you feel
about this book. It talks about a lot of touchy subjects, and pulls at your
emotions, which is probably why I liked it a lot.
