Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 102 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.

I think this scene is important because Swenson is realizing what he doesn’t have anymore and how is life is slowly degrading. His daughter isn’t staying at the house with him for Christmas, his wife left to stay at a large farmhouse and his at home drinking his sorrows away. But at the same time, he’s thinking about how Angela is spending her time in New Jersey and what she’s up too. He’s wondering if she’s thinking about him or thinking about what to testify. During his time off, he returns Angela book of poems back to the library as he doesn’t want it anymore. He’s given up on himself and doesn’t really care anymore.
