I think that Mariam is a character whose response to injustice forms the basis of the novel. Throughout her narrative‚ Mariam had been isolationist in her approach to the world.

Santiago has gone through so much in his lifetime that we are bound to have had some similar life stories‚ right? Two events that seem to occur for Santiago and I are when Santiago gets robbed and when Santiago gets advice from someone who he sees as wise/knowledgeable.

Rather‚ Santiago (subtitled Uma reflexão sobre o material em bruto‚ A Reflection on Raw
