Some very important people have not been interpreting the book the right way so here is the ultimate spoiler for the book. Man, Boy's younger brother, is mentally ill through a huge part of the book. The sicker he gets the more misconstrued his interpretation of Boy becomes, hence, the question arises as to how much of what he tells the narrator is true. It gets more heavy for the reader because Boy IS being extremely destructive in his own Autistic way. So how much of what happens to Man is real? I will leave that to the reader who should go out of his/her way to research all these illnesses before making a decision.
Also, you should stop reading if you don't want to know the end of the book. The narrator and Man are the same person. Man merely describes the events through a third person point of view when trying to analyze the experiences he has faced. Another question arises as to whether or not Man is cured/healed enough to correctly understand what has transpired? I will leave that to the reader as well.
Yes! For those of you who know me this is based on my past relationship with my Autistic brother... God bless his soul.
NO! I do not have a hatred or resentment of the mentally ill, mentally challenged, or anyone in between.
For those of you who still feel malice towards me and my book...
GOOD. At least, now you are thinking and are fired up. Do the research for yourself. Nothing is impossible or improbable in this world and if you think otherwise you are seriously in denial.
