I thought that this novel wasn't one of my favorites, but I did find it to be interesting and made me think back into time. I hate books about wars them books are so boring and they are all the same stories. To me the most noticeable of this novel was the phrase so its goes. This phrase is referring to the idea that although a person may be dead and gone in a particular moment, they are still alive in all the other moments of his or her life. Starting off kind of slow it definitely picked up speed quickly. In the beginning when he describes how the guy gets crushed by a car it seemed not to bother him at all. He seemed okay about it which makes me realize what he’s seen in the war
The people in the novel believe that all things repeat themselves and that all things already happened.
They also believe that people on earth think of time as a progression, which to them is a not the right way to look at things. Even though when you are already on earth your life is already destined and there is no changing that at all. So you just have to deal with it and cope with things as they are and as they come

I'm with you. War books always seem to say that war is bad, depressing, and we should never go to war. All of that is true but if you write a book about it, at least make it interesting to read.
