I think to some extent the author does believe in fate. However, every outcome was the result of some action on the part of the characters and all the outcomes were not exactly the same.Raluca_Mihaila wrote: ↑01 Jul 2021, 02:33 Do you think that the author believed in fate?

I agree that the author believes in fate. However, I do not think the book is completely based on fate, especially because it showed the results of the decision made by Gary. so there might be some element of fate there but not completely.Raluca_Mihaila wrote: ↑01 Jul 2021, 02:33 Do you think that the author believed in fate?

However, yes, there is something that exists which we call fate. No matter what actions we take, some things just come to pass. The author believed in that, as the reactions or actions of the people involved followed a certain pattern. While the small details might be different, the outcome did not change in a major way.

It is not that much a matter of fate, but the result of the assumed existence of ALL possible outcomes. So, if there's an infinite number of possible outcomes, every single possible situation would happen. In the book, we got to know just a tiny selection of them all. But actually, according to the theory, there would be so many of them that we are not even possibly able to imagine them all. It's kind of mind-blowing, right?Raluca_Mihaila wrote: ↑01 Jul 2021, 02:33 Do you think that the author believed in fate?
