The Fault In Our Stars: Evaluation
A well written novel by John Green admires a fictional story among cancer patients whom seek an adventure in a romantic comedy way, The Fault In Our Stars. Hazel Grace (one of the protagonist) continues to live along with others who carry some type of cancer inside their lives. It all begins “in the heart of Jesus” where Hazel meets a handsome young boy who strangely continues to stare at her to catch her attention, Augustus Waters. Ironically, Waters plans to be the love of Hazel’s life in a positive match figure, but in a negative match figure water seems to be deadly because Hazel’s lungs contain water which causes her to have trouble breathing. As God stands beside them all, so does cancer leading to a suspenseful death that changes lives grievously. Green synthesizes romantic comedy with deadly cancer to produce a fair outcome between life and death.
Green produces art involving yet a deadly weapon, cancer. Those who carry cancer in their life cannot change the fact that death lives beside them as well. Even though death lives within; does not mean those characters can have a glamorous experience throughout life. Patrick, a leader from a support group, prays, “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.” (Pg. 9-10). Patrick (not really a main character) persuades Hazel and others to have strength and accept their cancer as a gift of wisdom about life. This gift reveals to be unreplaceable from God, but does not signify they are not allowed to do anything they desire. Of course, the characters from the novel would argue cancer stands as a gift, but yet cancer leads the path to Augustus and Hazel’s desire, romance and happiness. “When he looked back at me, I flicked my eyebrows up to say, I win,” Hazel gladly stated, (Pg. 10). Green involves humor not only to make the story more interesting but to exemplify two characters having a regular relationship even though death stands right beside them. Augusts Waters becomes a major impact in Hazel’s life and plays an outstanding role in the novel as a young, weird, funny boy whom seeks happiness with Hazel. Hazel consistently having trouble to breath because she carries water in her lungs does not cease her to breathe happily with Waters and their adventures. She won the experience to love through life and death.
The novel may be a romantic comedy that many readers may enjoy, but the story also contains violence and disgusting events that can be nauseating for young children. The novel should be read by mature students who can take the story as a realistic matter. Ages from sixteen and over may be the correct age group readers are allowed to read The Fault In Our Stars. Sixteen seems the correct age to be allowed to read the novel because of the way their age group acts or thinks. Maturity starts to impact students mid-way from high-school and over because sophomores and under still have yet to learn how to have an open-mind and a positive overview through negative and positive occasions, realism. “So I looked him over as Patrick acknowledged for the thousandth time his ball-lessness…” Hazel comicality and inappropriately stated, (Pg. 10). Yes, the remark may be hilarious but to a younger kid this inappropriately explanation can cause them to begin the habit of speaking unsuitable language in a public society. Having children speak unreasonable statements can damage their life in the future with public communication skills if they consistently create inappropriate remarks. Not trying to be a spoiler, but the novel contains imagery of a sex scene taking place. “His face turned away from me, my ear pressed to his chest…” (Pg. 208). Reasonable readers catch the scene to be romantic and an action that happens in life. However, young readers may inhale the sex scene to become a major impact and attach the scene to their mind. They possibly create inappropriate jokes, being unreasonable, and having childish thoughts. Children have trouble adjusting their thoughts positively as older adults because they have yet so much to learn about life.
Death plays a major role throughout the novel. The characters are attached to death daily throughout their life and have nowhere to neither run nor hide but only fight till the end. After finding true love and happiness death takes place nearly the end of the novel to an important character. “I am going to die and leave you here alone and you won’t have a me to hover around and you won’t be a mother anymore, and I’m sorry, but I can’t do anything about it, okay?!” (Pg. 296). A major character knows any day for their rest of their life can be their last one. Anger revolves around them because the death of a companion, lover, and friend. Realistically those who have cancer can only live for so long, but the way this character dies continues his after life in their hearts with a letter he leaves behind for a special someone. Cancer composes life to be more difficult to live then to die. Cancer (death) allows these characters to experience a unique way of life that no other can experience. Being able to travel and walk up stairs when having water in your lungs endures strength and courage to defeat death in many ways. As Waters explains, if you put a cigarette in your mouth but do not light it up, you do not give death the power to take your life. Green adds a quote in the novel that adds to be realistic, “Without pain, we couldn’t know joy.”
The Fault In Our Stars by Green provides a description of strong cancer survivors. Those who enjoy romantic yet deadly comedies will enjoy the unique novel massively. Death may be a negative aspect, but living with death day in and day out can cause an experience that will not be forgettable to believe.
