    Sunrise Over Fallujah In the novel Sunrise Over Fallujah, a man named Robin, also known as Birdy, narrated. I think if the author, Walter Dean Myers, chose a different narrator, the whole book would be told differently. For example, if Jonesy tells the story he would talk more about the Blue’s rather than why he joined the army and how he felt about his family and friends like Birdy did. Some connections I made was how they were in Iraq about a war to get the U.S. weapons back and to change their type of government.…

    The narrative, “A Story of War and Change” by Reza Kiarash details the gruesome horror of the Iran-Iraq war through the experiences of the author as a paramedic within the Iranian army. What is immediately noticeable by the reader is how the author recounts his memory in short, staccato esque sentences. Evidence of such is provided when the author writes “ Yes, it is”. The lack of sentence sophistication helps immerse the reader into the atmosphere of the campaign the author is fighting in. As events escalate further within the story, the choppy sentences help create an aura of urgency for the reader.…

    Bill O’ Reilly and Martin Dugard took it upon themselves to continue their popular series with an attempt at telling the great story of Ronald Reagan. Reagan was the 40th President of the United States and his story is very remarkable including a defining moment in his life when John Hinckley Jr. took an attempt on Reagan’s life. In Killing Reagan: The Violent Assault That Changed a Presidency, the authors use that event as a basis for the book and look to show the significance of that event. The authors also show Reagan’s early life before his presidency and political life. Since his story is already great in itself, the primary challenge that O’Reilly and Dugard face is presenting that story in the best way possible.…
