Question: Write your opinion to a character's action or reaction. What would you have done instead?
Answer: This entire novel began when Noah visits his brother Alex in an insane asylum. He went crazy after coming home from Afghanistan. Later on, a mysterious man who was Nijinsky comes up to Noah as he was playing with some friends in a local park. He says to Noah to skip school and follow some instructions. He then meets with Dr. Pound where he would play a game where if he lost he would lose get his legs cut off. He realizes at that moment that this is how his brother became crazy. He passes the game but what happens after that is unclear. If I was Noah, I would run for my life before they found me again. But he doesn't, he flies to NYC knowing full well that whatever he is involved in is how his more courageous brother went insane. All his pain could have been avoided if he had run away when he had the chance. That's what I would have done.
