Reality and truth are both so hackneyed in a commonplace manner with over-lapping ideas that they each lose their own individuality. Reality is a subjective value that reflects what characterizes our world‚ whether it is our individual world or the world as a whole‚ and its conditions. Oliver Sacks’ "The Mind’s Eye: What the Blind See" and Tim O’Brien’s "How to Tell a True War Story" bring the relationship of truth and reality into question. O’Brien openly uses the thin line between truth and reality
