Animals.
This is a theme that keeps coming up in my mind as I'm reading The Wars.

| Well, doesn't he look cute and cuddly? Welcome to reality. And the wars in life. Animals are not cute and cuddly, they are made to kill. |
I feel like the character Robert parallels with animals.
When I started to notice this it was through the coyote. Robert is one with this coyote.
The rabbits also play a role in the novel as they are representative of Rowena. They are soft and gentle and need to be cared for.
Then there is the horse, Roberts Companion.
The characters in The Wars show us that yes, we humans are nothing but animals. Yes, we think more, but ultimately we need similar things.
I believe that this is a very significant theme and that it will develop as the novel goes on.
