This being the case, Vindice’s analysis of “that marrowless age”, “hollow bones”, and “spendthrift veins” point to his condemnation and the effects of the Duke’s…

    Max when he leaves his note for Hans at the bridge where they left off. It also reminds me of another part of the book where Liesel grows more independent and becomes more confident during the raids. This song again has the beat of great adventure and sadness at the same time, which fits perfectly with this part of the book.

The same fire acts as “a herald of the civil rights movement” (271) and spurs Ames’ grandfather into action while leaving Ames with a “loving transcendent vision” of the future in his note.

    “Here is a small fact. You are going to die… Does this worry you? I urge you- don’t be afraid. I’m nothing if not fair.” (3) Death shouldn’t be feared because it happens to everybody. Death is equal to everyone. Death cannot be bribed or beaten. Death is inevitably. Why fight it? “Forget the scythe, Goddamn it, I needed a broom or a mop. And I needed a vacation.
