I agree with you, there are two place in this story and the river is a main place for start and end story but the environment and feel of this place is different. In the end its make reader feels very sad and the environment sound terrible but in the start of story the environment is sound like a beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteI think I understand what you are going to talk about. You want to contrast the relationship of two people in the different period of time but in the same environment, right? I agree that the time changes, the relationship can be changed.
ReplyDeleteI like Near's comment, especially the way she talks about the feel of the two places in teh novel: the ranch and the river.
ReplyDeleteIt seemed to me that the river was natural, peaceful and good, a place of dreams, whereas the ranch it the place of man, violent, and the place where dreams are destroyed.
I think the river, nature, is still beautiful at the end, even though the event that happens there, between men, is awful.
