Many of Jesus’ parables and the book of Proverbs seem heavily focused on such a topic. However, the Bible is far from a standard textbook that could be used in an economics class.

Point of View is an literary element that can change the perspective readers have on certain people and events in a novel. In A Separate Peace, Knowles tells his story from a first person narrative point of view. A Separate Peace is about a main character Gene and his best friend Finny who have a sort of friendly yet competitive relationship. Finny is lovable and pure, while Gene is competitive and jealous.

Gene is an unreliable narrator, and this impacts the story by shaping the plot, and shaping how the readers view our protagonist, and highlighting the theme of guilt, and the message that guilt is eternal.

Elkton Hills was because I was surrounded by phonies. That 's all”(Salinger 13). Although, Holden says people are just “phonies” this has an important meaning towards his personality by identifying him as a person that choices to be different. He does this by often lying to himself and others. For instance, Holden demonstrates, “I felt like praying or something, when I was in bed, but I couldn 't do it.
