Boys

In the story boys the author did a very interesting thing in that he told the story through how the boys entered the house. it showed how at different ages different things impact your life. The relationships of brothers can be a very complicated one where insults and fighting can show the true compasion each brother shares for the other.

the story took you through their life in times of crisis (when their sister dies), in times of joy (the wedding), and to when they truly feel like men not boys (when their father dies). it shows how they cope with life and its issues of puberty, college, marriage, and death. It does all these things by showing how the boys enter the house either how they are dressed or what they are doing when they go inside. Then he sows adulthood by showing how they did not enter the house and how as you grow older you can grow apart from one another. it is a good story about life and how to survive it
