All The Light We Cannot See 2

1. Make an argument for what you think the main conflict is in this book. Use examples from the book to prove your claim. 

I think the main conflict is war and the Nazis, there is a constant fear of the Nazis coming to kill either Werner or Marie-Laure and their families. An example of this is on pages 279 and 280 when the French cops came to Marie's uncle's house and Marie didn't trust them. She thought to herself something that her father told her she thought "Everyone is looking out for himself." As well as, "If your same blood doesn't run in the arms and legs of the person you're next to, you cant trust anything." In Werner's case someone had to lie about his age in order to get him out of the basically Hitler Youth.

1. Choose either Marie-Laure or Werner and do a character sketch. Mention appearance, age, mannerisms, defining characteristics, personality, circumstances, main goal, and primary conflict (so far).

Werner is a 14 year old boy, he has snow blond colored hair, and sky blue eyes. He is an orphan, he has a little sister her name is Jutta. He is in the National Political Institutes of Education, he is bad at sports, but he good in the academic field. He is an engineer, he fixes radios and knows a lot about the electronic things. Werner and Jutta live in Germany, Jutta lives in the orphanage that the both of them grew up in. Werner's main goal right now is to become a professional engineer, his primary conflict so far is the National Political Institutes of Education (NPIE) he's in, he doesn't know if he'll graduate.
