Document Summary
It is a rat stops the imagination that he had of the war (similar to mccrae"s poem), and leads into rosenberg"s view of war with his poem after the entrance of war you go from the imagined view of war where you can make things happen to the rat who is fat because he fed on the bodies of dead soldiers tension between imagined world and real world at war this is the difference between what people imagine and the real experience of it the rat can also be used as a resemblance to the sleek men outside the windsor hotel (it also says the rat is sleek in the paragraph) like rosenberg said, there is more chance of life for the rats than the soldiers, and this reference is also made through harrison"s novel and probably had this in mind while writing this part of the book.
