Into The Wild: A Narrative Fiction

Months later after Zach finished dwelling on his father's death he was approached by an old man when he was taking a stroll in the park with his best friend and somehow he knew all about Zach's superpowers. At the time when all of this was happening Zach's mum was helping out with a campaign for a new president.

On a sunny summer day Zach and his little sister sarah were walking the gravel roads. Somebody had dumped some trash is the ditch and they found a straw. Zach’s

This is Stan Mueller and here is story. Stan was born on May 12, 1968 in Elkader, Iowa. It was on Mother's Day. His parents are Harold and Lois Mueller. He has two older sisters and an older brother; making him the youngest. They lived on a farm a few miles from Garnavillo, Iowa. He would ride his bike up and down the lane and all over. Stan remembers working on the farm with his dad, talking about stuff, and getting the work done. He would shoot his bb gun at little Indian guys, pop cans, and dinosaur toys. He would go out in the timber and explore things, be adventures, and have fun. He liked the quietness of the farm and how he could feel the warmth from the furnace. He would fight with his brother a lot but he still got along with him too. Almost every day, his mom would bake different sweet treats for the family.

Transcendentalism is an extremely difficult philosophy to truly understand and even more difficult follow and apply to everyday life. Chris McCandless, from the movie Into the Wild, goes on a long journey after college attempting to live freely by the principles of Transcendentalist philosophers such as Emerson and Thoreau. Chris attempts to live happily, but what matters is whether or not Chris believes that his life was successful at the time of his death. He tries to find happiness within himself and discover truths in the world and in his own life. Chris McCandless does follow the ideas of Emerson and Thoreau because he abandons his family and possessions and gives up his potential success in order to discover truth and find happiness. His pursuit of these ideals teaches that transcendentalism is not a practical philosophy because Chris fails to find happiness through these ideas.

The story follows a very generic plot line. In the first few chapters of the book the author gives the reader background information about the characters. He explains the game that Zach plays, and introduces us to Zach’s friends. Then, in the next section of the book the rising action takes place. This includes Zach being taken to the Earth Defence Alliance (EDA) base, him joining the EDA, and him being placed on the moon base.

Zach has a much harder time expressing his emotions in public, however, and unwilling to share what has happened with Alice and Poppy, he tells them that he's simply no longer interested in playing. It's a huge deal—the end of an era, really—but Zach doesn't let on that he cares.

The next morning he ate some of the leftover berries thinking what he was gonna do. He thought about how his parents would be if there together trying to look for him. We know that he was a very brave 13 year old because he managed to pass the night in the forest.

Bob and Billy dared Zack to go into the lake alone and stay in the lake of 1 hr. Zack, like he is, said yes. So he went off with no flashlight or phone. The only thing his friends gave him was a match. Zach lit up the match halfway there because he saw something over the lake, it was thick and had a foul odor to it.

I was strongly affected by a film I watched called “Into the wild”. Based on a true story the 2007 film describes a man (Christopher McCandless) who chooses to give his savings to charity, rid himself of his possessions, and set out on a journey to the Alaskan wilderness. Up until the time I watched this film, I had the impression that money and possessions were massive benefactors to happiness I may have received this impression from my surroundings or from television. After watching the film several times, my impression on life and what it means to be happy changed massively. I no longer viewed happiness as something that could be bought, but instead viewed it as something that can be made.

“Hey Zach, it is your big day today. It is your 2nd to last Cross Country meet” Mom said happily. “And it's time to go to school Jack and Zach”.

This is the starting point of all the conflicts in the story; where we find out who Zachary really is and how he behaves. Zack was an irresponsible teenager, “He lied over trifles, and periodically stole money out of wallets that were left lying around. He started smoking at thirteen, and was into the liquor cabinet by fourteen. At sixteen, he smashed up our car one night after a poker party. Once he dumped Dad’s red tool box, tools and all, in the river during one of his rages.” (4) This causes problems in the story as later on it ends up impacting the family.

At a young age, when the family was moving from Minnesota to Sacramento, California, Micah and Nicholas both struggled with different internal struggles. Being smarter of two other siblings, Nicholas found that his intelligence in school was making up for his lack of being talented at anything else. Micah lacked what Nicholas had, and found himself masking the pain with his incredible athleticism, and being good with the girls at school. Nicholas distinctively recalls his mother bringing down his report card from the refrigerator, the main thing that made him feel worthwhile. "It hurts the others kids feelings".

Novels and storybooks comprise a reflection of human character and individuals in the society. They are a mirror through which the audience is able to infer lessons which promote their sustainability in life. Similarly, films are a reflection of a particular viewpoint in the society. Conversely, the film Into the Wild and the novel Tracks offer insight on an element of human life. They explore the human setting and collectively conclude that we should all try to escape society. Principally, based on the premises set forth by the film and the novel, it is our inherent responsibility to isolate ourselves from those who are around us.

He was a gleeful young boy, and, as did many gleeful young boys, he loved to play games. He lived in a lovely two-story home in the suburbs with a pleasant neighborhood around his home. His neighbors were amiable and there were two other children on McAllister Drive. One, Nicole, lived on the corner of his street, and the other, Jackson, lived across the street and one house to the right. They would often play together and they enjoyed each other's company very
