Where he does show love for the clone, it is misread by the poor boy. This love is self-love though, as El Patrón sees only himself in Matt, unsettling him deeply when he learns of the truth. And with this great love comes great power. He gives Matt the strength of power, which quickly goes to the kid’s head when he realizes he can do whatever he wants when El Patrón is present like demanding “a birthday kiss” from María (Farmer 109). Creating a beast in his image is all El Patrón wants, leaving Matt to be a toy cruelly used and discarded, though Matt attempts to learn from his
There were many youth groups that rebelled against the family traditions during these times and wanted to change the way of life for the middle-class citizen. The characters in the film seem to try to accomplish change in their own unique way. Alessandro’s character is not ones ideal hero in this narrative film, but he is not a definite villain either. He lies somewhere in between. More of an antihero who is bound to help his brother find happiness because he is the only one capable of

The men who view him this way are totally different from each other. For example, George plays the role of the family member to Lennie, which at times makes him act cruel towards Lennie. At first, Crooks views Lennie as just another one of the workers who treats him badly then later realizes he is a nice and caring man. Curley on the other hand strongly dislikes big men and being that Lennie is a big guy, Curley never gives Lennie a chance to be friends.

Although constant evil swirls around Bruno, he is able to hang on to his innocence, which shields him from the knowledge of the situation he is in, but ultimately leads to his and Shmuel’s downfall. Bruno’s innocence becomes quite apparent throughout the course of the novel. He portrays this childish innocence through his lack of understanding on many of the changes that have been happening in his life. Bruno portrays this quite clearly by asking his father : "Did you do something bad in work? I know that everyone says you're an important man and that the Fury has big things in mind for you, but he'd hardly send you to a place like this if you hadn't done something that he wanted to punish you for."

It may be represented in both books, however, it is represented in opposing stances. The Simple Gift frequently sees various characters sharing what little they have simply with the purpose of helping a fellow human who is desperately riddled with need. I interpret this generosity to be present because the characters lending their assistance know the pain and hardship of unacceptance and not belonging. For example, Old Bill knows the struggle of being entirely alone with nothing left but the haunting memories of a life left behind which is why he reaches out to Billy at the end of the novel. Billy recognises the weight of the gift saying “I knew that Old Bill was giving me more than these keys I held holding someone’s past in my dirty hands.” However, in The Island, the locals are incredibly apprehensive to extend any kind of generous gesture solely based on the Stranger's appearance.
