A Long Way Gone

CLIMAX
 The climax occurs when Ishmael realizes he will never escape war and find peace until he leaves Sierra Leone. He finds a way to get to Guinea and then to New York City and become a new person. So the struggle to get out was very tough but he did it. Through the harsh trials and tribulations his hope got him through. I picked this song because it is more of a motivational thing. Like he is just realized his way out.

THEME
There is always Hope. Just when Ishmael seems to be totally lost in the horrors of war, doomed to eventually die at the hands of a war he finds the light at the end of the tunnel. More of a perseverance or a will to escape the horrors of war.

PROTAGONIST
Ishmael Baeh a boy from Sierra Leone goes on a climatic journey of sadness, and horror.
I picked this song because it made me think of the character as a more courageous individual because he had to do a lot of things for his friends that he didn't want to do.

Run dmc walk this way


OVERALL SONG
I picked this song because of the fact that through this book it is mostly action thier is no down time through the book. And because these people caught in between didn't like it either because innocent lives are caught in between, so what is war good for.

War huh yeah what is it good for.



Random story things
When he stayed out in the woods for months it became his home. But he dreams of being some where else no where near war. So I chose this song because it depicts all the things he hoped and longed to get away from war.

Some where beyond the sea
