The book isn’t really just about a few selected people, but instead the author tries to see it from a lot of different perspectives. Therefore the reader get to know a variety of personalities. The Ninja is a high-voltage novel of intrigue and sensuality, richly characterised, fuelled by relentless suspense, an extraordinary thriller, least to say.
If there’s a main character in the book I think it would be Nicholas Linnear, a man of half-English, half-Oriental origin. A quite specia .....

Ethan Frome Character Flaws
Number of words: 309 - Number of pages: 2.... to push Mattie out of the house.
Another flaw that Ethan shows in immaturity. This is demonstrated when he is trying to convince Mattie to run away with him to Florida. He tries to run away from his problems instead of facing them.
A fourth flaw is reveled when Ethan and Mattie are sledding down the hill. Mattie says that she never wanted to leave the hiss, so together they slid down the hill and into a tree, trying to commit suicide. In my opinion, this was rather stupid when they had a bottle full of poison in the barn.
In this paper I have demonstrate .....
