They “were considered antisocial” (Flack, 4) and were not accepted into the town. They did not communicate with anyone unless spoken to. Therefore the people could not get to know them. Also, not only were they judged for their behaviors, the Duvitch’s “were marked people. They were the one struggling family in a prosperous community.” (Flack, 3) This was embarrassing to the town and “They were considered unattractive physically.” (Flack, 3) Later on in the story, the town’s people noticed Andy and his family’s relationship with the Duvitch’s.
Still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest (Simon, Woodley, 1968).” I can tell from this statement that most likely his family and loves ones tried to persuade him not to leave his home but he decided to listen to what he wanted to hear. In the second paragraph he continues to describe how he lived among strangers, and gives the impression that he was homeless. He looked for a job without success“Asking only workman’s wages I come looking for a job But I get no offers (Simon, Woodley, 1968).” The author makes us feel compassion for this young man by stating that he sometimes he would feel very lonely that he would look for company with the “whores”. “There were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there (Simon, Woodley, 1968).” The young man would like to go home away from the cold winters in New York City, but probably
“Thomas was not surprised by Victor’s sudden violence. These little wars were intimate affairs for those who dreamed in childhood of fishing for salmon but woke up as adult to shop at the trading post.” The quote from above is a small telling of what Sherman Alexie was trying to get his readers to notice. To notice that the Spokane Native American way of life was being taken by them and instead of replacing what they have lost, a compensation of sorts, the American government has given them a custom not fitting for their way of life. Because the government was taken away what was rightfully theirs the Spokanes react to it in different ways. Such as the violence mentioned in the quote above and the many times alcohol was mentioned throughout out the novel.
The novel is about a man who influenced the actions of others yet “did not know when he had any responsibility for them and when he did not” (656). There was a time when Jack Burden believed that there was nothing but the Great Twitch, for “it gave him a sort of satisfaction, because it meant that he could not be called guilty of anything, not even of having squandered happiness or of having killed his father, or of having delivered his two friends into each other’s hands and death” (657). But after many years, he discovered that he did not believe in the Great Twitch anymore. Jack Burden “had seen too many people live and die.” He had seen the Scholarly Attorney, Lucy Stark, Sugar-Boy, Sadie Burke and Anne Stanton live “and the way of their living had nothing to do with the Great Twitch” (657). Jack Burden had also seen his friend Adam Stanton Die.
