The discusion about who is ultimently responsible
for Finny's death could be endless. A couple of
characters that could be thought of for the fault of
Finny's death are Gene because it first started off by
causing Finny to fall from the tree. Then another
character could be anyone that caused him harm. So
blaming these people would just be rediculous.
The person that is responsible for Finny's death is
Finnny himself. Most wouldn't blame the victim. One
obvious reason is because people tend to feel sorry for
the victim. But, after going over each and every
character Finny's name just keeps coming up.
One example is how it took Finny a long time to
admit that there was a war going on. And even a longer
time to admit that his friend Gene, was the one that
caused him to fall out of the tree. The whole time he
just thought that his friend would never do something
like this. When he realized this it seemed like the life
If Finny believed Gene when he admited that it was
his fault Finny may have still be alive. Then like any
other friendship they would have gotten in a fight. A
fight is healthy because then most of the problems are
brought up. After maybe a couple days Gene and Finny
would have been talking and hanging out like normal.
It was unforntunate that Finny had to die because of
all of those mistakes. But like always, innocence never
last. Finny was the innocence of the story so the author
felt that it was necessary to have him die. If Finny
wasn't as innocent as he was he might have survived.
