“How to build a bonfire” by Eddy P.

 

After reading “how to build a bonfire” I feel a little judgemental and quite shock because throughout the story the man survives many days without the sun traveling just to get back to his boys. In the story he meets an old man and that old man has given the man advice in the past. The old man said “No matter how fast he runs, the wet feet will freeze even harder”.  And the man then accepts the advice and later one was grateful for the advice given. And even though the old man from sulphur creek told him “no man should travel alone” the man responded with “ Those old men were rather womanish, he thought. All a man must do was to keep his head, and he was all right. Any man who was a man could travel alone” which shows a disagreement between the man and the old man on sulphur creek. Then man throughout the story suffers with frostbites because of the temperature. He then meets a wolf dog who was smart enough to have known the man can provide fire, follows the man until the man dies in the end of the story and before he dies, he man thinks back and agrees with the old man on sulphur creek. The wolf after the death of the man continues the mans quest to get back to his boys and makes it there.
