I think when Primo says that “every stranger is an enemy” he is referring to a deeper instinct in the human psyche. This instinct‚ for lack of better words‚ manages to transform people in order to ensure survival.

passed all my class. One of the accomplishment that i am proud of is my G.P.A and my grades from last semester. I am proud of my last semester grades because I know that I worked so hard to get those grades. My ninth grade year wasn’t one of my greatest year because I was going through a lot of things at that time. The one thing that I was going through and was the most painful was my dad leaving my mom and me. It was very painful because I felt that I have lost someone very important to me.
