Foreign Correspondent Part 5: To Ruin The Book

To ruin the book I must start by saying that I have finally figured out the plot. Carlo must rescue his current girlfriend because she is a spy that was just captured by the Nazis, he also must save his newspaper liberazione. Also two warnings, I will ruin the end of the book in this post and I have not taken my adderal today so this may be confusing. Looking back on the book now i feel like the plot has kind of been in front of me the whole time, i think that that is the hardest part about the book. The character development is shown very much in this section because it is the climax and you can see how people do under pressure. For instance, Carlo is cool headed and makes rational decisions whereas Colonel Ferrera is more likely to make a big decision quickly and have to work his way out of it. This is shown when Carlo, when faced with an Italian spy agency trying to take his newspaper, does not just storm in and gun the men down, he gets evidence and takes it to a french spy agency who takes them out for him. This is also connected to the plot, which was mentioned above, because they are the people trying to stop the newspaper from functioning. To solve the other problem Carlo had to make a deal with the devil, he promised to go back to Italy if they found his girlfriend. I think that this also shows that Carlo is a very good friend and a very committed boyfriend. Back to the solution he promises this to a man associated with the M16 or the british spy service. Of course they find her but the book ends with him having to go to Italy. Also Colonel Ferrera runs off with a russian stripper because he does not want to promote his book. THE END
