I Read Is Hatchet Book Report

Author Gary Paulsen is what one would call a poet, yet he rights novels. This is because his poetry is hidden wonderfully in his simple, yet beautiful style of written. Hatchet being no exception. The Hatchet has several metchet metaphors and it is just one part of the story. Though in my opinion one of the most important, if not they most important.

Cormac McCarthy’s brain child “The Road” is a postapocalyptic novel that illustrates the harsh reality of the world. This story serves as a truth that humans, when stripped of their humanity will take desperate measures in order to survive.

Brain has to persevere throughout the book. When he comes back from collecting firewood to cook meat he finds a bear rummaging through his hut he has to think fast to keep the bear from eating all his food he has for winter. He made the wrong decision by kicking it in the rear but at least he was able to keep it from getting into all his food and betty saved him by “spraying the bear” This shows how much Brain has grown at the end of the first book and the beginning of this one he was timmid of the wild but now he is able to persevere and shoe the bear away. “Brain urinated around his camp” This was a very smart decision because he knows that wolves mark their territory that way and after that he had no more problems with animals in his camp.

When he dropped from the bridge, the rope snapped into and he fell into the water. His hands freed themselves and untied the rope from around his neck.
