Answer:
a "stifling world of his parents and peers, a world of abstraction and security and material excess".
Explanation:
"Into The Wild", by Jon Krakueur, tells the story of a twenty year old man named Christopher McCandless. He had just graduated from college where he studied Law. Instead of pursuing and advancing his career in Law, McCandless chooses a path which is somewhat strange. He begins his journey taking the western route and later moving north to Alaska.
He undertakes this journey because he believed that the present world which he lived in and was trying to escape from was 'stifling and reeked of material excesses'. The kind of life he now chooses to live is best described as an Ascetic life only that in his case, he does not go the spiritual route. As he begins his journey, he takes along with him books about edible wild plants and thriving in a lifestyle such as he has chosen.
Structure-wise, sentences
could be simple (one independent clause), compound (two independent clause with
coordinating conjunction), complex (a subordinate & independent clause) and
compound-complex sentences (subordinate & two independent clause). These
include clauses, conjunctions, coherence and balance and even to the number of
words you use in your subject and predicate. The benefit of complex or compound
sentences is that it could give you more explanation on the subject or topic of
the sentence. This gives you a much more understanding on what the sentence is
trying to portray or to message to give.
