Tres And Garrett Murders

Originally the narrator is as corrupted as the lake; though born pure and “clear” he becomes tainted by the “beer” and wildness of his culture. As the character ventures to the lake on the night that the majority of the story takes place in, it is not difficult for the reader to correctly predict that some action he takes will lead to some unfortunate event for him and his friends. The narrator comments that losing his keys after unknowingly instigating a fight is “[his] first mistake, the one that opened the whole floodgate,” (131) foreshadowing the grave and life-threatening events to come. After nearly killing a man and nearly raping a woman, the narrator finds himself in the murky waters of Greasy Lake next to a rotting body of a dead biker. However, after emerging from the water after what appear to be many hours, the narrator realizes how repugnant and unpleasant Greasy Lake is and realizes after seeing the dead body in the lake what happens to the people that frequent the lake. Since Greasy Lake represents the society and culture that the narrator is living in, the fact that he realizes that the lake is this repulsing is a self-realization that his life style is the same.

Unfortunately for Marquart’s grandparents, North Dakota was not only disappointing in terms of vividness, but it is also overvalued by the media. Entertainment describes a kind of false-facade in correspondence with North Dakota. This is a state where directors get their actors to be “blond, fresh-faced and midwestern” in order to make their “descent into ruthless behavior in places like Los Angeles and New York all the more tragic”. Even the people already living there are so monotone that film writers make characters midwestern for shock-value. Because everyone knows how boring the people are in North Dakota, when characters in entertainment begin to meet their downfall, it is actually seen as a surprise, as if everyone in North Dakota are idols. By juxtaposing midwestern women with the adventurous cities of New York and Los Angeles, Marquart successful shows the contrast of the secluded and undesired area of North Dakota. Marquart shows the difference between the point of view of Keillor’s Lake Wobegon, from A Prairie Home Companion, “where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average” and the film Fargo, “the macabre land of murder-by-wood-chipper”. Although the two stories make North Dakota seem like an attractive, exciting place, unfortunately, these two tales are just myths- nothing more. The real North Dakota claims to have “easy inclines and farmable plains”, yet an official surveyor,

The characters in “Greasy Lake” can be viewed in different lights. The narrator and his two friends, Digby and Jeff, are three mean boys whose lives seem to be centered around getting drunk and high from dusk until dawn. The narrator praises Digby and Jeff for their slick and dangerous lifestyles. Their skills consist of dancing, drinking, and “rolling a joint as compact as a Tootsie Roll Pop stick” (65) while on a bumpy drive. These characters scream trouble. They seem like harmless teenagers out to have a good time but it can be interpreted that these characters will attract mischief. After a night of bar-hopping, dancing, eating, drinking, and smoking, they decide to continue the party with a bottle of gin on the shores of broken glass and charred wood. These characters can be interpreted as young, naive, wild, reckless fools. The decisions these kids have been making the entire night have not been good ones. They have driven to bar after bar, consuming drink after drink. Obviously, their decision making is impaired. The reader should realize that the road the boys are travelling on is one that leads to a bad place. It is a place that has everything to do with Greasy Lake. It’s a place where dangerous things happen. The allegorical element that is found in the boys is

Police subsequently have attributed a number of the child murders to Williams and closed the cases, although he has not been tried or convicted in any of those cases.
