Shane

Wrote a review for

Shane is so much more than a mythical tale of a gunslinging western hero. Shane is about the importance of everyone in our lives.

We’re inclined to overlook those around us when we’re living in mundanity. Often, it takes a big change for us to really appreciate our community.

Shane was a figure of hope for this small settlement. After he leaves, Joe almost considers leaving, but Marian convinces him to stay. Because Shane is within all of us.

We need to be that inspiration. Our community is important and we need to go out of our way to keep it.

Some weird racism aside, this book was really progressive. It’s about a small town fighting against a corporation using violence to take their land. And I think it’s important for us to know that we can fight back.

We can all be Shane.
