Pages: 229-302Prompt: List at least three problems the characters faced? Which was the most life changing? Explain
There were a few problems the characters faced. the first problem the main character (Carver Young) faced was that he lived in an orphanage. His father abandoned him and he had no family that he knew. This experience definitely changed his life in a big way.
Another problem is that he realizes that his father is a murderer. His father is Jack the Ripper a murder who is loose in New York City. This affects his life because it makes think if he is a good person or not. This problem lowered his self esteem a lot.
The final problem he had was that his mentors boss is always tricking him. He gets into fights with him and eventually gets him arrested. He dies in jail and Carver thinks that it is his fault. This also lowers his self esteem because it makes him wonder what kind of a person he is. I think the most life changing problem is that he is an orphan. This affected his life in a big way because it meant that he could only trust a few people. This definitely affected his future and how he acted.
Wow, these problems are really big and it must be really hard to find out things like that. It seems like a really good book to read.! Do you think you could deal with any of those problems?
ReplyDeleteSteven,
ReplyDeleteAre these just the main problems he has or are there more? Does he actually meet his father and get to know him better? His life just seems so broken and messed up. I want to read this book in the future because it sounds like a book I would read. Even though I just know that part of the story, it sounds like an amazing book to read.
