In chapters 23- till' the end of the Soloist, the novel revolves around Nathaniel and Steve's friendship. The two have developed a strong bond and get into an exchange of words. Nathaniel proceeds to say hurtful things and Steve, knowing that Nathaniel did not mean what he said, continues to help the poor man out and continues to care. Since both people are still alive today, it's obvious that the novel did not end with a death. Rather, this real life story ended with a birth. The birth of an attempt at a new life for a homeless man and several of his friends down on their luck. I personally enjoyed the book. I, despite being hypocritical at the beginning, think the book turned out good, and once you got past the beginning it flowed quite smoothly. Steve Lopez recalls events accurately with interesting vocabulary and being a writer and journalist, I expect to see a bit more work from him.He has to have a few more stories up in that head of his to share. Note to Mr. Fiorini, I apologize for the severe lateness of my post. Believe it or not I have been very busy lately and the weekends were even harder as I now have work. This is no excuse and I'd like to thank you for the extended time I was given.
