In the story ‘Sniper’ author is telling us about the young soldier, “…his face was the face of a student – thin and ascetic…” who plays his duty as a hit man. He doesn’t see nothing but his job and responsibility. The author in this story suggests the horror of war not only by presenting its physical dangers but also by showing its psychological effects. This guy seems to be ‘blind’; he doesn’t naturally understand what his does. He kills people, just because he knows that is what he is supposed to do. It reflects a part of duty we follow in our life.
