In the book Ishmael by Daniel Quinn, Ishmael talks about how the world came to be. “A story is a scenario interrelating man, the world, and the gods” (Quinn 41). He described two groups of people, the Leavers and the Takers.

In the same way, Ishmael’s life as a boy soldier was strongly influenced by geography.…
Ishmael saw two of his childhood friends get killed during his first battle of the war.

Both authors experienced unimaginable trauma and Ishmael’s victimhood cannot be negated as he had no choice but to fight in the war and partake in the…

I had to take a step back couple of times reading the novel to correlate it with my own personal values, the way I saw the world, and the very foundation of the world’s educational systems and beliefs.…
