Murakami's Argumentative Essay

The narrator had done everything he could as a young child to make K be protected, smart, and loved as a brother. Although when they had gone down to the beach he tried everything he could to save K’s life without jeopardizing his own life too much. “‘I’m getting out of here!’ I yelled to K squatting down looking at something..I was sure I yelled loud enough, but my voice did not seem to have reached him”(Murakami 134). This narrator had tried but he knew the waves were planning to grab him so he had to get out of there. Just like in the story “The Moral of Survivor Guilt,” by Nancy Sherman, the returning war veterans need to forgive themselves for the sense of responsibility for the death of their fellow soldiers. “Captain Bonenberger said. ‘When we were in trouble Jeremiah Pulaski was there for us. But when he was in trouble he was all alone. I know it's not rational or reasonable. There is nothing logical about it, I feel responsible”(Sherman 152).

Perhaps the seventh man should have tried to grab K, but he was really far out at the beach and he was probably worried that he would end up getting eaten by the wave just like K was another reason the Seventh Man should forgive himself is because he didn't create the wave to get K.
