    Chapter four is very interesting because there is a lot of drama at the end of the chapter. There is a double homicide committed by Davy, when he kills Tommy Basca and Israel Finch. I don’t know if Reuben thinks his brother is a murderer. It is kind of confusing because he says, “Davy wiped his face, said, ’Well-’ then stepped over Tommy and out the door. And when did he know just what he’d done? We’ve wondered that, Swede and I” (Enger,50). In that sense, it is very hard to say if he thinks his brother was a murderer. Nevertheless, I believe he thinks his brother was trying to defend his family. He did not plan to kill Tommy and Israel, it was the moment of defending his brothers. I think Davy claim for justice. He suffered when the guys bullied his girlfriend, his family and his little sister, Swede. Justice was already served. As a reader, I was expecting that outcome. However, I never thought he was going to kill them without planning. I felt the author was very careful when he was going to describe the murder. Even though Davy was not a violent person, we can see the anger he was hiding deep in his heart. Since Davy is the oldest brother, he is the one who has more power. It is very important to be loyal with your family, to take care of them and to help them overcome obstacles. The novel explores the idea of loyalty by showing the readers how the family was…

He also goes on to say how in history many cruel and unjust things are left out or briefly told and immediately covered up. Many people view Columbus as a hero when they think of him. He did amazing things, he sailed the unknown and discovered new lands. But what most people don’t know is what happened to the people already living on these lands when he and other explorers showed up.…

She would also be crueler than her husband and “she also demonstrated, to her satisfaction, that education and slavery were incompatible to each other” (Douglass 22). Slavery also proved to be harmful even to white people…
