Johnson provides a brief account of the novella 's plot, together with his own perspective on the fact that so much of literature and literary analysis concentrates on the relationships that the characters have. In this case, the author examines the family as composed of children of ineffectual parents. While this writer does not know this with certainty, it is possible that many cases requiring family therapy are due to this very cause. The author then goes on to discuss the family in the context of the greater social system.

The first passage reveals the parallel suffering occurring in the lives of different members of the family, which emphasizes the echoes between the sufferings of the father and the narrator. The narrator’s father’s despair over having watched

To begin, as in Quiroga’s frightening story The Feather Pillow an exploration of the love and care between husband and wife is displayed. When talking about her husband, Alicia is concerned. Where she should would feel love and appreciation she feels “[...] chilled by her husband’s rough character” (Quiroga 1). Lacking to show love towards Alicia, Jordan is directly impacting her mood, which in term keeps her in a bad physical state. Letting her feel this way and continuing to act “cold” shows how much care he truly has. In order to go further, Alicia describes her loveless situation and her lack of comfort in her own home the narrator continues to mention “It is not strange that she grew thin. She had a light attack of influenza that dragged

The narrator was writhing in the misery of the burden of brotherly love. The narrator’s mother, via tasking him with looking after Sonny, asked him to serve as his sibling’s keeper and protector. The narrator was riddled with grief throughout his life right from the burden of brotherly love that was placed upon his shoulder, to the dilapidated living conditions he and Sonny had to endure while shaking up in the projects, to the imprisonment of his younger brother and the death of his own daughter-

He turned to the streets, begging for scraps of food or clothing, trying to find some way to support himself. Those years of his life had seemed like a dark abyss in which he was trapped. He could see the sunlight above, but he had no way to reach it. He still remembered the looks of disgust and fear upon people’s faces as he crawled to them and begged for help. They would pull their children closer and cross the street as they neared him, or walk straight past him with their eyes fixed ahead, unfazed by his pleas. After some time, he lost hope. As the rich merchants and fine clothed women passed, he said nothing, curled up in a ball on filthy, tattered blankets, starved and cold, flea bitten and depressed. He had feared for a time that he was on the brink of insanity, and had taken to talking to the stones on the street to while away the lonely hours. He remembered hoping he would simply pass in his sleep during the night to escape his never-ending

The narrator’s varying stately yet fervent tone illustrates her obligatory feelings as well as her true emotions regarding her husband and lifestyle through her descriptions of the “nursery” where she is confined (Gilman, 648). John, since he is both her husband and doctor, “hardly lets [her] stir without special direction,” characteristic of patriarchs of the family; he also “laughs at [her], of course, but one one expects that in marriage.” (Gilman, 648 and 647). Since the narrator feels

Edouard, Sarah’s father in-law, was forever traumatized into silence about seeing Sarah return to the apartment to find her dead brother. Edouard had nightmares and would never forget what he had witnessed. As Julia read Edouard a letter from Genevieve to Gaspard’s family about Sarah, her life, and her now joining the DuFaure family “He sounded like he was crying, but he appeared to be doing everything he could to make me think he wasn’t” (195). Seeing Sarah return to the apartment to find her brothers dead body locked away had been a defining moment in Edouard’s life and being able to hear the letter about Sarah’s new and better childhood with the DuFaure’s he gained some closure, at least Sarah found a great family after what she had gone through. William Rainsferd was also greatly affected by learning about his mothers true identity. He rethought his entire life, caught in a whirlwind of emotions and new information, and finally at the very end of the book made peace with the new knowledge and used it to better his life. His life was forever changed by learning more about

Laila’s pain is a direct result of her mother’s- Mammy is devastated by the loss of her beloved sons and thus isolates herself from reality by dwelling on the past, which causes Laila’s own heartache because she feels invaluable and invisible due to her mother’s negligence. Although Lalia is unable to make an imprint on her mother’s heart, Hosseini's word choice, deliberate and vivid, as well as the repetition of the phrase, “swelled and crashed” leaves an imprint on readers’ and the mood of hopelessness and anguish permeates the passage. Readers are left with a broadened awareness of how every action they have done and left undone truly does leave an imprint, like footprint in the sand, on every individual with whom they cross

It wasn’t sudden. Patria had been feeling uneasy for a while. And in a place; in a time, where medical assistance was a precious commodity, she would have to settle for praying. But, was it enough? Patria had been noticing, thinking, growing skeptical-- all account of her sister, Minerva Mirabal-- of her religious beliefs. “I started noting the deadness in Padre Ignacio's voice, the tedium between the gospel and communion, the dry papery feel of the host in my mouth. My faith was shifting, and I was afraid” It wasn’t just her questioning faith that had weighed heavy on her, but the immense stress and fear she held for her sister wore her down. Taking her apart, piece by piece. Would Minerva get shot down? Would she be taken prisoner and be tortured? Would she mysteriously vanish and never appear again? It was an ongoing struggle in her head, and the stress was overwhelming. Taxing. Not just on her, but on the once living infant that her womb had carried.

Holly went home and collapsed on her couch. To her antipode, the room bifurcated into her bedroom and her kitchen. Holly knew she should take a shower and climb into bed, but she was so exhausted. She turned to a picture of her parents. She stared at the picture of her smiling mother and marveled at the similarity between Holly and her mother. Holly felt a tear coming, then blinked it away.
