Has Misha's character changed (from the beginning) when he starts getting involved in the civil war in Absurdistan, or has he always been that way? What were his motives?
I think Misha is undoutably in a process of changing. For the first time in his life he is doing something independently. First he got together with a woman who wasn't Rouenna, and now he is pretty much adopting her family's revolution. I think this is a good sign of progress in Misha's character.
I agree with Charlie, I don't think that Misha has changed much at all. In his quest for fulfillment he tries new things. His motives are primarily selfish, seeking to leave his mark on the world or satisfy his desires.
He's the same person, but he finally realizes at the half way point in the book that what he's doing actually affects others. It's good for him, since Misha is always attempting to make himself feel good and now can do so in a meaningful way.
I don't think Misha has changed much, he is just seeking fulfillment in a new way but is still doing what he does just to make himself feel good.
ReplyDeleteI think Misha has matured, but his behavior remains the same. He is now more aware of his own actions and his environment, he is less naive.
ReplyDeleteI think that Misha is simply more aware of his actions toward society, but not necessarily more mature.

ReplyDeleteI don't believe he has changed that much. He still only worries about making himself happy. This means that his motives are very selfish ones.
