While reading the scene I thought that Berniece and Lymon were getting along very well. In my opinion there might be a relationship between them. She was being very kind and telling him that we will find a girl and that he'll be alright. But then if they had a relationship, I wonder what would happen with Avery. If she likes them both then she'll have to choose and that could create a conflict. While reading this I could tell Lymon even if he talks about having a good time and getting girls, he really is serious about finding one that will stay with him. Boy Willie just wants to have a good time and you could tell that when they talk and how they feel (their perspectives) about women is different. The author, I think, used foreshadowing in this scene.
My Comment::
I think this is gonna be a big deal later in the story. Avery and Lymon both going for Berniece. But Avery has been waiting for a long time and Berniece doesn't seem very nice to him, then with Lymon she was all calm and relaxed. I think she might like being with Lymon..
Yeah, the Bernice and Lymon thing was like a total random twist in the story. Do you think those two will end up together?
ReplyDeleteI agree that their perspectives about women seem different and the place of a women and womens rights could contribute to a theme later on
