The Vernissage

This shortstop story was written in 2008, so it is a quite b ar-assed one. It is ab by Alex and his family. At the beginning of this short story, Alex fetch is picking him up from cultivate they are talking about e actuallyday experiences about his school and her parvenue bought dress out. The perplex has bought a new dress for the Vernissage she is going to ascertain to with her husband the following evening. at that placefore Alex is going to stay home and doing his training with company of his babysitter Anne-Marie. At six oclock his give is coming home.At this hour Alex is laying in his parents bedroom underneath his parents bed listening to his mother getting ready for the coming evening. When his stimulate gets in to the room a conversation with few words begins. At the ending Alexs parents walks out and he goes into the bathroom and begin brushing his teeth even though he is soon going to scram dinner. As we already make do has Alex been for school and he gets i nto his mothers car with a s trouble because of the group of mothers waiting outside the school gates.He is thus far a boy who loves banana sandwiches. Yet he still wants to fuck off older and no longer be considered a child (p. , l. 48) There was something about banana sandwiches, sweet and soft, that made him think of babyfood. Maybe he was getting too old for banana sandwiches, He loves his mother and has a better relationship to her than he has to his father, he talks and has a mountain more contact to his mother shown throughout the intact short story. Considered his heavy(p) relationship to his father a nice example is shown (p. 3, l. 100) He hoped his father would not come grimaceing for him but that would be unusual, Therefore it clearms worry his father doesnt care that much for his son.Alex is also a very curious boy, or else he wouldnt be asking so many questions to his mother so many times. After Alex has slipped into his parents bedroom he lies underneath the bed, and he is watching his mother magic spell she is getting dressed and ready. In this scene we see the relationship mingled with Alexs parents. His father is going up the stairs to meet his wife.They are married, yet it feels like there is some secern of distance between them (p. 3, l. 107) The two pairs of legs kept their distance, about three feet between them, Alexs mother is ery supportive towards her husband, he seems to be quite nervous for this evening (p. 3, l. 109) How are you feeling about tonight? OK. It should all go OK, I think. Of course of study it will. It will be great, John. Alexs mother is searching for some sort of accept from Alexs father whom she cannot achieve she bought the purple dress for his sake, to look sober for his special night and because he once said, the colour suit her, she listens to her husband, and it means a lot to her to come close to him.He does not listen to her (p. 3, l. 18) I told you I was going to buy a new dress for tonight . Remember? Oh, right. Do you like it? The dress? In this strain we can see how he seems not to care that much for his whole family. Alexs father keeps a certain distance to his own wife, and mayhap she feels shut out of his mind. She tries to get closer to him, (p. 4, l. 148) The woman took the hand and cupped it roughly her left breast. She held it there, as though it were a weak runt of a thing. She wants her husband to touch her, but still this seems not to make the biggest flick on him either.As the main theme I believe we have lost love. We see a mother, a wife who wants her husbands accept and she wants to feel him touching her not to reject her hand and begging. The mothers dress is purple this stands for spirituality and is connected with the blood of sacrifice. Therefore I see the dress and the colour stands for her sacrifice to her husband. She truly wants to be a good and caring wife, support him in every way, she can. The white crepe news report stands for pure ness and a new beginning. It can also mean devastation and despair.
