This prose extract is a first-person retrospective narrative from Robertson Davies’, Fifth Business, in which the narrator, Dunstan Ramsay, has just received the news that his parents have died. The narrator illustrates his relationship with his late parents, his existing romantic relationship with the nurse that nurtured him back to better health, Diana, and his satisfaction with living. This extract explores the contrast between familial love and loss, the narrator’s affection and relationship with Diana, her reoccurring stress on religious significance, and that narrator’s analysis of the role of women. The narrator does not dwell on the pain of losing both his parents, but does not realize until he reaches “his thirties” that he could see them “as real people, who had done the best they could in the lives fate had given them.” He determines a lot of life is prearranged, and relies on fate for many answer. At the time, “as [he] lay in the hospital”, he felt a sense of relief that they had died.
