"I never killed anybody and I never developed an intense level of hatred for the enemy. Because my war ended before I ever put on a uniform; I was on active duty all my time at school; I killed my enemy there" (204).
I think Gene's war was his internal battle he had at Devon. The enemy he killed was his envious and evil self consequently with the death of Phineas. The death of Finny and the war combined to rid Gene of his evil side.
Why does Gene come back to Devon after what happened at the end of the book?
