Several discrepancies exist between the two men. Author O’Brien never had children, or ever killed a man in war.

When reading a work, the “common” reader has already made the decision to not “collaborate” with the author’s ideas, and chooses not to leave their “mark” on the work as they overlook the opportunity to perform a deeper analysis of the main ideas. Due to the “common” reader’s inability to conceptualize the deeper meanings of certain ideas, he or she is therefore unable to comprehend all of the concepts the author intended to convey to readers. The “common” reader reads Percy’s essay "The Loss of the Creature" and extracts only the main ideas of the work, as they miss out on a “deeper” understanding of the concepts given by Percy. The “common” reader would most likely read each paragraph as a boring collection of meaningless statements, as they put strong emphasis on noting the simple ideas of a topic, instead of analyzing the main ideas and making comprehension of these concepts the main priority. Percy introduces an example that effectively allows different types of readers to be immediately distinguished based on how they choose to perceive certain
For instance the fragmented element of the narrative can both reflect Offreds 'state of mind' and contribute to the suggestions about Gilead as a nation/ society.

It is important to acknowledge that this is not a neutral description of events therefore the focus remains on Atwood's message rather than the issues of any fictional dystopia. Atwood reveals Offreds 'state of mind' through the use of flashbacks.
The ultimate meanings of our lives are chosen by our experiences. The end of our lives “cannot be foreseen and will not be limited by such things as destiny” ("Steinbeck's Nonteleological Perspective"). These are common philosophies of non-teleological thinkers such as Edward Ricketts and John Steinbeck. Steinbeck, the famous literary author of The Grapes of Wrath, incorporates this way of thinking into his many works though his characters: their surroundings shaping them and giving purpose to their lives. The Grapes of Wrath is an example of his non-teleological beliefs being incorporated into the nature of his characters; their fate not being pre-determined, but rather dependent on life events.
The narrative situation is who is telling the story and whose eyes is the story being told through. The person telling the story can be a character involved in the action that has a limited view on what is going on or it can be told by an individual that is outside of the story and knows everything going on. When trying to determine who the speaker of the story is the reader must look at the point of view used, is the narrator a character, how much does the narrator know, are they involved in the story, and does the narrator make their thoughts and opinions
The reader can also infer that the third stranger is nervous about seeing someone. The Characters use explanation of the settings and emotions, rather than having the characters speak right away and throughout the scenes. Hardy also uses irony to see human affairs not as they appear to human
Where there are gaps in the responses of the other characters the reader must imagine what is being said themselves in order for the text to make sense. This approach of writing creates an interesting read where no two reader’s responses may be the same. Depending on the reader’s response the story alters. An illustration of this technique is Hamid’s conclusion of
