Reaction to "GEORGE AND THE PINK HOUSE"
George seems like the classical grump. He screams at children and beats his family. It is so funny to see all the town boys reunited talking about his issues and aggressions. This is the story of how life makes you pay for you mistakes. There is always this kind of people in our community and is really sad to see haw this people can be like this. I would like to respond to the fact that after his wife death he passed trough a hard time with money and suddenly he has money, his house is full of women, soldiers and sailors. Some people may not get this directly, but all the women in his house were prostitutes and the sailor and the soldiers were costumers. It is at the time of his daughter wedding that people start to say that he ought to put her to better use meaning that he ought to make her another prostitute. All this boys did not understand what was happening in this man's house. After years of bothering them and after his wife death, his daughter got married and after his son moved he just died and the boys got some money together to bury him. His son went to the funeral.

Jenni, true I think some don't realize what was happening to Dolly...how she is so disrespected and thought of as property...a potential prostitute. So I would say that George is not just a grump...he is cruel. What do you think? Also, check the end of your reflection. Was there something you want to say about the conclusion? (rather than the summary?)
