Chapters 23 through 31 was the best part of the book. Nathaniel Ayers has completely changed from how he was in the beginning of the book. Before, he was a homeless man living on the streets of Skid Row with a deep passion for music. Now, he lives in an apartment, has a studio of his own, and still has a wonderful passion for music. What helped Ayers change was the friendship he has with Steve Lopez. I believe that friendships can change a person a whole lot. Friendships build trust and that’s what Ayers had with Lopez. Friends want the best for each other and Lopez wanted Ayers to have a better life than what he had before.
In chapters 25 and 27, Ayers finally expressed himself in a yelling manner. He even threatened to kill Lopez if he ever came near his apartment. It must have hurt Lopez hearing that he would be killed by a close friend. I felt really bad and sorry for him because Ayers probably didn’t mean to say those hurtful statements to him.
The few chapters at the end were a wonderful closing for the book. Ayers could rebuild his musical life and he finally has a studio where he can practice as much as he wants without bothering others. He gets inspired more and more at every concert he attends and with meeting other Juilliard graduates like Yo-Yo Ma. The ending of the book was definitely a new beginning of Nathaniel Ayers life and a great ending for The Soloist. I’ve learned that we should appreciate people for who they are. Everyone is unique in their own ways and we should learn to accept it.
