Piano Lesson #4

While reading on Friday, I found what Doaker had to say kind of overwhelming. It was when he was explaining the background of the piano, and the story about when they were slaves when I realized how much sentimental value that the piano holds for their family. I'm excited and sort of worried about what will happen to it because in the end some one will get hurt. Also another part that was very interesting to me was when Doaker was talking about the train. It seemed metaphorical and like it was foreshadowing an event. I really want to read some more and find out more about there past because I don't think the author has let the characters tell us everything yet.

My comment:
I also think the ghost of Sutter is confusing. I think that it is weird that they don't think that its them imagining, but they also don' tsay that think that it isn't real. (if that makes sense). I want the author to explain it some more.

  1. I agree that something will happen to them or the piano as the play is called The Piano Lesson however I'm not sure what. Maybe Boy Willy will take it and sell it like he's said he will do.

  2. I think the piano is going to play a roll but in the end I think it will be about more than selling the piano and getting Sutter's land because there are too many connections for the story to be that simple
