I have read "The Things They Carried" by Tim O'Brien. This story is a fictional story about a young man who was drafted for the Vietnam war in his first years of college. This book describes the coming of age of multiple characters in its portrayal of each character individualistically. It shows how fast each of these young men had to grow up after joining the war and the difficulties they faced. It is easy to forget how young these guys are because of the things they say or the actions they must take. There are many moments in the book that make you stop and go "Hey wait. These are just kids," and it really shows the maturing process and the stresses of war in addition to suddenly being thrust into adulthood.

I have read "To Kill a Mockingbird"

Explanation:

A coming-of-age story is a story that describes the immense growth of a character, typically based on a life-changing experience. This challenge makes the character mature and see the world differently. To Kill a Mockingbird is an example of a coming-of-age story because the main character Scout views a person she used to dislike, Boo Radley, in a different way after he saves the children's lives. She realizes the even though the children viewed Boo Radley as a dangerous curiosity, he is really just a person who likes to keep to himself unless it is necessary to come out. However, when the children's lives are in danger from Bob Ewell, he does the right thing and saves them. This makes Scout realize that she can no longer view Boo Radley as a bad person and is an example of Scout maturing.

claim 2: "wherefore, since nothing but blows will do, for god’s sake, let us come to a final separation, and not leave the next generation to be cutting throats, under the violated unmeaning names of parent and child."
