“I write about places where your roots are and most people don’t live that kind of
life any more at all”
Small towns
▪ “The river houses all gone
...
The land is now a
floodplain… Nothing can be built there anymore”
Gender and sexuality
o Women’s roles – virgin and whore
o Developing sexuality
o Class – “people close to the bottom, like Eunie Morgan, or right at the top, like Billy
Doud, showed a similar carelessness, a blunted understanding” (239)
o Female bonding
o Epiphanies
o Same-sex desire
▪ “Ho-ho-ho! Wayne-the-boy!”
▪ “Should I give the boy the horn?”
▪ “I wouldn’t want for there to be anything going on…” (Eunie to Billy)
o Performance – ““How you entice me,” he said, in a voice not his own” (242)
▪ “Was that on the news, Eunie? Was it a story? Were there people acting in
front of a microphone or was it reporting? Eunie! Was it real or was it a
play?” (239)
o Marriage – “Billy Doud had told Rhea that Wayne had told him he had stuck to
Lucille all this time, and was going to marry her, because she would make a good
wife
...
She
wouldn’t have a lot of bargaining power, he said” (243)
