here? What would drive an intelligent, confident and capable teacher, whom I witnessed, reduce the gnarliest year ten boy to tears, scare the eye liner off the goth- year nine girls, and run an entire department like clock- work, stay?

When thinking about the war, Henry states, “Well, I knew I would not be killed. Not in this war. It did not have anything to do with me” (Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms, 37).
