Document Summary
In the novel ticket to childhood by nguyen, he discusses his journey of overlooking his past as an adult into his memories as a child. He told his story in a series of vignettes as an adult narrator and commented on his eight year old actions. Nguyen illustrates the mui as a young boy with a short attention span as he was always distracted by something else. I found this part of the novel thoughtful as part of this narrative was used to show readers how similar his behaviour resembles childish distraction including moving back and forth between the present and past events. In the novel ticket to childhood by nguyen, he discusses how the character mui and his friends would create their own language or terminology because they didn"t believe in whatever was set into stone by adults was correct.
