    Literary critic Ben Roberts uses the common science fiction trope of memories mixed with the use of first-person narration to bring awareness towards the tragic circumstances of mental illness. Roberts uses memories to combat “I”’s attempt at surviving to convey a sense of helplessness for people with mental illness. In theory, he’s trying to convey a sense of “I” trying to achieve the peace we all are trying to find. After all, “I”’s a person just like the rest of us. Therefore, Roberts wants the reader to realize people with mental illness aren’t something to mock; they’re people who need help against the constant struggle they endure to survive.…

    In The Americanization of Benjamin Franklin, Wood explains the life of the Founding Father, Benjamin Franklin, and shows how he became one of America’s greatest icons. Also, he gives readers a new understanding of the American Revolution and a profound insight into the emergence of America’s ideas itself (16).
