With a serious beard!

  • June 11, 2021

Well, Dee didn't like much of anything part of living in the country.

  • June 11, 2021

Yes! That's exactly what it was, even though it didn't have that name yet.

  • June 10, 2021

I see her as kind of in between the two daughters in her level of confidence…More confident than Maggie, less confident than Dee.

  • June 10, 2021

At least in terms of natural abilities, like innate intelligence, if not material things.

  • June 10, 2021

That's what he heard, yes.

  • June 8, 2021

It seems that it happens very often.

  • June 7, 2021

So did the pawn broker.

  • June 7, 2021

Exactly. If it is as magical as he believes, he thinks that he could bring her back.

  • June 7, 2021

Still passed out from the liquid “imagination.”

Liquid imagination. Oh dear.

  • June 7, 2021

It's a quest! A hero's journey!

Allusion

  • June 7, 2021

“Indianizing” the metaphor

  • June 7, 2021

Look again…

  • June 7, 2021

Inference

  • June 7, 2021

Explanation

  • June 7, 2021

Yes, in theory.

  • May 27, 2021

Hm, I don't see the connection between these two ideas.

  • May 27, 2021

Correct. Maggie is more accepting of her mother's traditional ways and is closer to her in general.

  • May 27, 2021

Dee is not doing the handshake; her boyfriend/husband/whateverheis is trying to do a complicated handshake with Maggie.

  • May 27, 2021

Yes, that seems to be what she is doing. If not better, than at least different. She wants to set herself apart from them somehow.

  • May 27, 2021

Maggie wasn't just unhappy…what happened to her in that fire?

  • May 26, 2021

He's not a barber. It's just the only word the narrator could pick out from an unfamiliar-sounding name.

  • May 25, 2021

“Asalaamaleikum” means “Peace be upon you” in the Arabic language.

  • May 25, 2021

Very surprised. She had never seen anyone who looked like that before.

  • May 25, 2021

Historical and cultural context

  • May 19, 2021

This might be what the house looked like: https://images.app.goo.gl/uigrbGAXBDC3Xmhq8

  • May 18, 2021

Here's the thing: Dee had intellectual intelligence, and her mother and sister had practical intelligence.
