The Intended Impression

The writer's impression on war stories is, that the storyteller has the ability to make minor changes to the credibility of the events, in order to add more creativity and shape the reader's opinions or comments based upon it. For example, he points out that a true war story is not just about the disastorous destruction the war brings to both life and property, but the true emotions, memories and the hardships that the veterans of war encounter on the war zone.

// ** "In the end, of course, a true war story is never about war. It’s about the special way that dawn spreads out on a river when you know you must cross the river and march into the mountains and do things you are afraid to do. It’s about love and memory. It’s about sorrow". (Pg 10) ** //
