IRB Intro #2: Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer

For my IRB for the second marking period I am reading Into the Wild, written by Jon Krakauer. It is about a man named Christopher Johnson McCandles who came from an affluent family, graduated from Emory University and then gave away everything he had to go into the Alaskan wilderness. His body was later found by moose hunters, shortly after Jon Krakauer was asked to write an article for Outside Magazine about the events. Krakauer was so fascinated by the story that he decided to do enough research to write a book. In the book I can expect to find uses of imagery and other forms of figurative language in order for me to connect and form emotions to the events in the story.
