A Separate Peace states, “The more things remain the same, the more they change. Nothing endures, not a tree, not love, not even death by violence.” I agree that everything changes the more it remains the same. A tree will die or get sick if it does not change with the weather. A person will become an outcast and be labeled as “freaky” if they do not change with the trends.

Throughout the book, The Chosen, there are four major qualifying characters for the role of “The Chosen One”. David Malter is the father of Reuven Malter, and is an active Zionist. Reb Saunders is the father of Danny Saunders, and doesn’t talk to his son with the hopes of teaching him compassion. Reuven is Danny’s friend, and is a bridge among all the characters. Danny becomes friends with Reuven after hitting him in the eye with a softball, and also works with David in the library in secrecy. While all these characters have major roles, only one can be crowned with the winning title. Reuven Malter is “the chosen one”.

The characters are very typical for this genre as they are all considered potential suspects to the death of Eva Smith. Their traits and speech conform to our expectations in several ways. All characters even if they were not a big part of Eva smiths death, had a role to play in the lead

The most obviously is King Theodore representing Teddy. The aunt and the uncle are represented by antagonist characters but it is more difficult to identify the right character for each one “...[Emperor Kang] escapes through the treachery of Zikla, Duke of Anders, a general in the the Upalian army…” (42). Zikla represents the aunt because she is subordinated to the uncle as the Duke of Anders is under the orders of the Emperor. Zikla’s treachery can have a metaphorical meaning if we assume the aunt is Teddy’s blood relative. The aunt betrays his own nephew and she blemishes her brother or sister (probably dead) when she doesn’t look after Teddy properly. At the same time is not difficult to find a relationship between Emperor Kang and the uncle “The Emperor Kang [is] as evil and cunning as the Fu Manchu…” (42).
