This demonstrates Jean’s life being difficult because, she constantly has to deal with her husband not caring about her and looking to other women to satisfy himself. To continue, Jean lacks proper
As much as Luke claims he cares about the river’s state of being, it seems that he’s more worried about the actual principle of it and the fear of future disturbances of the Tamassee. Ruth’s parents, Ellen and Herb Kowalsky, obviously did not care at all about the laws they would violate, they were miserable over the loss of their daughter and were willing to fight endlessly to get her body out and give her a proper burial. The local farmers like Maggie’s dad, cousins, and friends, were not clear on the side they were on. They felt bad for the Kowalsky’s and were sick of being told
Some may argue that John did not care for Ann’s love as he always left her alone, however that act broke John’s heart, as he chose to go face a snowstorm rather than confront Ann with his feelings after the incident, an act that ultimately led to his death. Furthermore, John has always shown loyalty towards Ann, nevertheless she was disloyal to him. Ann had confidence in John’s loyalty: “’But he always comes,’ she persisted. ‘The wildest, coldest nights – even such a night as this.’” This proves that Ann recognized John’s loyalty, and yet was still unfaithful to him. John always returned to her, no matter how harsh the barriers in his way were, proving that he put her before his own safety.
When he says “meant”, it puts stress on the word and it’s meaning- he knows he is failing to do so. Their conversations are restricted only to the local happenings and their children. Elizabeth wants John to go Abigail and “tell her she’s a whore. Whatever promise she may sense – break it.” He grows angry at her suggestion because he feels she calls him “base” and having no moral standards. However, I think that Elizabeth is merely trying to find common
Because their relationship is an affair, they cannot see each other in the way they want to very often and especially not while other people are around. They are not married to each other which make their relationship very wrong in that community and time- more so wrong than it would be now. John Procter understands that their secret must be kept, but finished, but Abigail doesn’t care that they were caught once and could be caught again. She just wants their relationship back and says, “Oh, I marvel, how such a strong man may let such a sickly wife be-” (miller 22) Abigail then comes to claim that Elizabeth, john’s wife, is “Blackening me (her) name in the village!” She is telling lies about me (her)!” (Miller 22) but he just gets angry at himself because it’s true, and threatens to whip her for talking about his wife that
The problem with Bone is that he is scared of his stepdad. Bone’s stepdad threatens him by saying some nasty words to him like, as he says “all the time he said he’d cut off my d*** if I told” (pg. 196). I think what makes bone leaves his family is that he doesn’t want anyone to know about the times when his stepdad abuses him. He is afraid of what the society would think of him just like when he says “no one’d believe me” (page 296).
He didn’t let Janie socialize with the community, even when it’s what she wanted to do, and he tried as much as he could to stop her from emerging in any way. When Jody was at his deathbed, Janie got her revenge through a rampage of harsh words to him. Janie finally expressed herself via social nuance, and began expanding the proud feeling she has for
When someone finds themselves in an isolated and unfulfilling reality they may make immoral choices which may devastate their relationships. When someone is isolated without a loved one they will do just about anything to feel safe and in some ways this could lead to something that in the end may cause deep regret. In the painted door this is what happened to Ann when her husband left to help his father. A neighbour came over to keep her company but in the isolation and thought of her husband Ann made some decision that in the end left her without John. In the freezing isolation of prairie farm land women may panic when they are by themselves and do something that they would have never done when the reality was good.
