Comparison Essay

Author's Note: This is a Comparison Essay on The Trojan Horse, and Safe Haven.

There is an essence where Helen compares to Katie, from Safe Haven.  Katie may not know she's beautiful, but that doesn't mean she isn't.  Unlike Helen who knows she is the most beautiful goddess in the world.  Another difference there is between the two character is how selfish Helen is.  Katie is the complete opposite.  She didn't want to hurt anyone when she ran away from home.  When she realized she'd hurt Alex and his family she made a run for it.  Katie, doesn't like being the center of attention.  While, Helen let war occur over her.

While there are many small differences between the two characters, there is one major similarity.  There was war over Helen, because two guys fell in love with her and wanted to win her over by winning the war.  In Safe Haven the plot is quite similar.  In Safe Haven, Katie runs away from her husband and meets a new guy named, Alex, that she falls in love with, and Alex loves her back.  One day Kevin, Katie's husband, finds her and Alex, and there's a fight over her.  The way the two characters reacted is different, because Katie tries to break the fight up.  Helen let there be war, but overall there's still that major similarity.
