I think it will talk about how the author dealt with the experience he had of him dying and the grief. - if this book is a story with a 
'happy ending', it will probably show although the death was painful, it made them all better people. ]]> 2022-03-02 02:08:20 UTC https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/TheThingsTheyCarried/wish/2072643983 1711341 https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/TheThingsTheyCarried/wish/2072644002 I think that this story would be about the emotional and mental toll this war had on them, the 'things they carried' could mean the emotional baggage they brought home with them.]]> 2022-03-02 02:08:21 UTC https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/TheThingsTheyCarried/wish/2072644002 182009 https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/TheThingsTheyCarried/wish/2072644189 Mental Health issues that the war caused to the writer. I think the writer will tell us how his whole life changed drastically after the war. how it affected his relationships and his image in society. I think he will talk about how he started looking at things differently after the war and how he coped with trauma.

I also like the long explanation of how many equipment they need, because it helped me empathise with the soldiers as it emphasised how dangerous their situation was. ]]> 2022-03-03 07:38:29 UTC https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/TheThingsTheyCarried/wish/2075291394 182009 https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/TheThingsTheyCarried/wish/2075291654 Its an interesting story because its very different. The writer keeps on mentioning the guns and everything the soldiers carried  over again which is gets kind of boring.
