Across the Wire Concluded

Upon concluding "Across the Wire," I decided to see if other shared my passion for the novel. The narrative accounts presented within this text not only offer insight into a nonfiction part of the world that is often overlooked and ignored, but it also serves as a "call to action" that makes us wonder as people what we are willing to let others of our kind go through before enough is enough.

This specific call to action sparks the question and debate about whether or not nonfiction novels are seen to the public as "books" or "real-life." By this I mean that nonfiction is known to be real accounts, but with all of the authors that have been discredited, do people truly believe what they read anymore? Would people reading this novel understand the harsh reality of that world and want to change it, or would they think that it was an exaggerated tale, like any fiction novel in which the author takes their liberties in describing the world as they see it?

I would hope that these stories would inspire people to get more involved with charity work and involvement of their choice, and attempt to create a world in which people would never experience events such as this in their lives.
