Rate this book
The Boys in the Boat is a novel, written by Daniel James Brown.
It is a story about a determined young man, who was able to successfully overcome every hardship in order for him to become successful.
The author’s style of writing is alluring and we see how the author successfully manages to connect events from the past with those from the present.
Joe Rantz is the book’s main protagonist. Through his life Joe suffered a lot. Regardless of his previous bad experiences, Joe is a perfect example of human’s determination, persistance and resolution. Joe managed to earn a gold medal at 1936 Olympic games, which were held in, then Nazi Germany.
Brown managed to catch reader’s attention by using his parallel narrative speech.
This book is also a book of lessons. It will teach its readers to be strong in order to successfully overcome any obstacle in life. The author also tries to teach its readers that, even though the life itself is far from perfect, that this is the chance for success and that those who have enough persistance and bravery will eventually reach their goal.
We also read that every hard work eventually pays off and that a person just needs to be persistent and not give up, no matter what.
