Summary Of The Book 'A Separate Peace'
1. On page 189, “Happiness only real when shared.” to me this is similar to ‘loving your neighbor here equals sharing your happiness’. On page 189, “Nature/Purity.” That quote goes with the “free personality”, to have a free personality you have to give up most of the society you live in.
2. I do not believe that it’s no one else’s fault. On page 189, “Fault of pot. seed.” Nature is the only thing you could put the blame on, in that sense it’s McCandless’ fault. He walked out in the wilderness. There was no one else involved in this. In the end it was his stubbornness that killed him. However, he died after he did what he wanted to do all his life, on page 199, “I have had a happy life and I thank the Lord.”
