When analysing The Orphan Master's Son by Adam Johnson, it is evident that there are a multitude of effects on the writing and its writer. Specifically, the clash between Jon Do as a person, and the bureaucracy of the North Korean government. Marxism works to explain the struggle between social structure which pertains to the book because of an unjustly founded class system. Furthermore, Jon Do has experienced both social classes, and it is clear that Jon Do struggles with the constant conflict between his identity and who he is forced to be.

When parents deal with tough financial situations, it can cause stress and anger within them. Some parents feel the need to take that stress and anger out on their children because they may feel their children are the reason they are in that financial situation, so the only way to get rid of that anger and frustration is to abuse that child. The effects of child neglect and abuse include: losing their parents, being moved into a foster care or a different facility, they may never feel the love of a parent, and many other effects come with neglecting and abusing a child.

Significant Quote: Nathaniel Hawthorne’s short story, “Young Goodman Brown,” Goodman Brown refuses to travel no longer with the Old Man and he responds, ‘“...when you feel like moving again, there is my staff to help you along” (40).

The Old Man is the devil and he bargains with a counterfeit spiritual power and gives Brown the choice to take the staff and therefore give his life to him.
