Plainsong : Harold and Raymond Harold and Raymond McPheron, which are farmers in a novel called Plainsong, are thought by some people to be simple, interchangeable characters, but they are actually complex, inimitable characters. By looking at their words and actions in the novel it should be simple to draw contrasts between them. Even though they are brothers their personality traits are considerably different. Raymond is more optimistic and considerate while Harold is more attentive and secure. This evidently shows us that the writer did not add them to the novel to serve one small, simple purpose.

People need connections with others, but these connections are not always what brings them to their absolute highest level of happiness. Chris proceeded to record his personal thoughts in his journal, further proving to the reader the point that personal connections are not essential to happiness. “I now walk out and live amongst the wild. Take care, it was great knowing you.” (69), Chris wrote on a card sent to two generous people, Jan and Bob Burres. How briefly this sentence was written and how easily the “good-bye” was said to the couple that took him in and gave him supplies, Chris had displayed that his desire to be on his own was greater than his desire for theirs or anyone’s, friendship.
