Are you asking a question or are you just saying theres a good poem in that book im confused please clarify
True. this is because the narrator is trying to be as realistic as possible.
Henry Fleming is a character in a book titled "The Red Badge of Courage" by Stephen Crane where he was mainly described as the main protagonist, the Youth. He started off as a young, naive soldier who wants to join the military without thinking seriously about it until his character grows into accepting his cowardice and selfishness and eventually comes out to be one of the bravest soldiers.
