The writer finds two kinds of James’s struggles during the Scarlet Plague: struggling from the plague attack and surviving from the human crime crisis. James’s struggles after the plague are struggling for safe place to live, struggling by hunting, and struggling to get social life. The implication of those struggles are human struggles to avoid the dangerous in life and to achieve major needs. Finally, James’s struggle ends to the ancient life where humans live in limit knowledge and skills.
