There is nothing as pointless as getting caught up trying to slow down time, and losing attachment to the moment you're in. Chris Mccandless and Holden Caulifield in Into the Wild by John Krakaur and Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger are searching for belonging but are stuck in fantasy belief of humanity. Holden and Chris, only search for innocence, and are blind to the fact that our society is prone to change into an experienced place. Toward the end of both their stories, they are finally…

However, Tom Murphy went solo all throughout his expedition and he knew just what to bring to survive In the harsh weather. They did have some differences In what they should bring though!

Into the wild Even though McCandless had it all, he wanted something he never felt; Freedom. He wanted to escape from all the abusive treatment from his abusive father and harsh humanity. He also liked Alaska which is where his journey took place for the most part. McCandless decided that he would donate all of his fortune to charity and begin his journey “Into The Wild”. One reason that led McCandles to make the decision of leaving was to pursuit freedom. I believe this because the book…

The Story of Chris McCandless: How to View His Story Every single person has a story, and the way it is told is even more unique than the story itself. Prior to Jon Krakauer’s publishment of Into the Wild in 1996, no one knew of Chris McCandless’s hitchhiking travels after he finished college and shut out his family. His motives and thoughts as he traveled from southern California to the wilderness of Alaska will forever be unknown, but Krakauer worked tirelessly to bring Chris’s story to life…

McCandless, the subject of Jon Krakauer’s book Into the Wild, seem completely different. However, the two protagonists are very similar in many ways. Chris and Peter may seem like conflicting characters yet they share many similarities such as, both have an alter ego, both experience issues with family and both embrace the idea of ultimate freedom. These traits reveal that one cannot attempt to stay young forever. Throughout Into the Wild Chris McCandless, also known as Alex Supertramp,…

Hard work always has a successful effect and perseverance comes with a good outcome. Adding these together can be possible to achieve things that are wanted. As Dr. T.P.

Christopher McCandless’s family discussed with multiple interviewers regarding his disappearance. Carine McCandless, Chris’s sister, states “Chris was brilliant at creating diversions, and…

“The Things They Carried” was about parts of Tim O’Brien’s life. It holds details about his life leading up to the war, during the war and after war. In the book he tells about one very important story in particular, in my opinion. The first happens before the war, after he got drafted into the war he got up enough courage to run away and move to Canada. He was on his way to Canada, stopped, and found a motel that this wise old man owned. He stayed there a while and the old man never questioned…
