Hate Thula's Character Analysis

112 Words1 Page

As I read pages 58-59 in chapter 4, I found out that being family doesn't always put you on a higher pedal stool as an outsider. Joe's father left him to live by himself in an unfinished house at the young age of 15. Joe's stepmom did not enjoy living with him and with no consideration of his mother's death; she easily persuaded Harry to abandon his own flesh and blood. Thula, the stepmother is pure evil for those actions. Joe's father, Harry, on the other side is not innocent either. Had Harry noticed the hate Thula had towards Joe? Was he naive or did he not care enough to address it?

In brief, the central conflict of the story involves an unorthodox birthday gift, intertwined with decent, and what occurs after the recipient reluctantly agrees to accept it.
