Mitchell mentions stopping time in the Gita. In reality though, there isn’t any time during the time of a battle to stop and pause time to have conversation this also happens in the Secret Miracle. Hladik first mentioned time when talking about how much time he had left to live, “Six more nights to come”(145). The feeling about how time can feel like it doesn’t move when you are sleeping mirrors what Mitchell says when time is moving in slowmo to reflect on what you believe is most important in that moment in time. Both use the theme of time to get the reader to think about the deeper meaning of time, and how and when it is possible to stop and think about the present and what lies ahead.
