Unbroken
Laura Hillenbrand
Pg. 253

The title of this book is very fitting in my views. It sums up Louie's life and how he struggled through every horrible thing that happened to him and he remained "unbroken". Louie was raised in a bad neighborhood and was forced to steal and do immoral things. He was also in the war and captured, where he witnessed, and was a part of some gruesome things. He stayed strong through all of this. Two alternative titles would be A Difficult Journey and A Changed Man (I'm not very original). A Difficult Journey because all of Louie's life was very difficult and nothing came free. This all was his journey to being a better person in the end. A Changed Man because Louie changed so much throughout the book and changed in the end because he had been through so much that it made him a better person.
