How To Write An Essay On Kim's Journey

Decent Essays
Throughout the reading of Kim the author took you on journey through Kims mission. At times the book was very hard to understand and follow. By the end, I sat and thought and put together what I knew. Kim has very many positive attributes. The journey, Kim went through was difficult to keep up, but I did understand the relationships between Kim and the Lama, and Kim and Mahbub Ali.
Kim has many positive attributes to his personality. One being the fact that he is good in any different situation. Kim, doesn’t belong to any specific group makes him the perfect outsider. For example, Creighton is a military man. Mahbub Ali is a horse trader. Kim not being committed to anything specific makes him perfect to fit in anywhere.

    Prior to reading this book, I believed the title Unbroken only signified the tragic war aspect of the story, however, it was layered with many aspects of Louie’s life. I thought this indicated war could not break him, regardless of the horrendous events he went through. To be fair, this is one of the meanings, but I am convinced there are multiple other implications sprinkled within. When Louie was announced missing-in-action, everyone was worried and concerned, specifically his family. His loved ones were constantly awaiting a message of reassurance Louie had been found.…

I did, however, recommend the book to several of my co-workers, so they could understand why I would get the way I got.…
