The two major themes in this novel are revenge and survival. Revenge is major because Ishmael’s motive and many other soldiers’ motives throughout his soldier career was getting revenge on somebody. Survival is a major theme because everywhere in his story he is just trying to make it another day.

There are two types of people in the world of reading and literature: those who cannot live without it and those who definitely hate the fact of reading and dread opening the first page of their book that they may or not be getting forced to read. In my opinion, reading is one of the least activities that I like to spend my time doing however, my book Milkweed has given me reasons why to keep wanting to turn the page. As I began the book, I realized that it wasn’t just like any other book where the story begins with a theme and plot and would eventually lead up to the conflict that made the story interesting after reading pages and pages to get there.

Though not much is known about Van Eyck during his earlier life. It is said that he either decided after a while to go to art school after being influenced by his brother Herbert van Eyck. Another thought is while growing up with his brother Herbert, he decided to learn art but it is thought that he did not have enough money for art school so he spent many years studying under his brother. The main reason that Van Eyck became an artist way that he grew up with around 5 brothers and 5 sisters and all of them were artists so that's the most likely reason he became an artist.

A theme is the meaning behind a story, occasionally defined as the moral of the story. Themes can differ from one end of the world to the other, as it does in many books. The Droughtlanders by Carrie Mac is a futuristic version of the world which has been divided into two parts. The rich and the poor, the healthy and the sick, otherwise known as Keyland and Droughtland. Keyland is where all the rich people with extravagant lands and lives live. Droughtland is a disease-ridden land where all poor people are being forced to live. Society treats Droughtland poorly and they decide to take action. Thus starting the revolution.
