Definitely, The Cello is a symbol of peace in this novel. The Cellist plays it for the 22 people who died at the beginning of the book and will play it once a day for 22 days until he plays it for all of the people. When he’s playing he is able to captivate an enemy sniper which allows the enemy to look through the scope of his rifle and just listen to the beauty playing through the instrument. I think that in the story it is just meant to give all of the characters some hope that the city will one day be at peace and it can be restored to how it once was. Tuesday, April 12, 2011
