Although Larry is a war hero that saved his platoon, he has a nasty addiction that gets the better of him. In the middle of the plot Larry invites kids to the wreck center and one by one they all go home. Larry, Francis and Nicole are the only ones left at the wreck center. Larry tells Francis to go home because he has to tell Nicole something. Francis walks away but stays after the lights go out. Larry then rapes Nicole while Francis can overhear it, “But I knew what they were doing-the thought streaked through my mind so fast that it could hardly be acknowledged.” (Cormier 96). As we find out later in the book when Francis goes to kill Larry, Larry is a pedophile and Nicole wasn’t his only victim, “Sweet young things. Had he done it before? How many young girls had been invaded by him?” (Cormier 115). Larry’s raping of Nicole sets up the motive for Francis to kill not only Larry but also

After marrying his first wife, Dorrie and getting lost in a maze on their honeymoon, which should be a high point of his marriage, Larry enters a rare state of lucidity,“Departures and arrivals. He didn’t know it then but these two forces would form the twin balls of his existence - as would the brief moments of clarity that rose up in between, offering stillness.” (Shields, 37). Although Larry does not realize it at this time he will eventually be able to draw this conclusion from his life. His life experiences lead him through the departures and arrivals of; his passions, floristry to maze building, his marriages and subsequent divorces, Dorrie and Beth, as well as his life style changes, comfortable middle class to specialized high class. This also happens with Larry’s emotions as Verlyn Klinkenborg states, “He contends with the unsteadiness of his emotions, a love for Dorrie and (his son) that can easily be roused and just as easily lost sight of.” Larry’s life is one that is constantly changing both by his own doing and the natural path of life. Throughout his experiences Larry has dealt many changes in every aspect of his life and it has allowed him a better understanding of how life, in his experience, works. Life goes by fleetingly, constantly changing the circumstances in which one lives. At another point in Larry’s life, following a dinner party he has hosted in which all of his guests were people that he has built a relationship with through his life,he thinks, “We will go round and around.. Watching where were going. Where we’ve been.” (Shields, 336). The conclusion that Larry has drawn here, that he will always cycle through the same things in life, are only possible because of the experiences he has lived through. He has gone from a happy life with a wife and
