The relationship between Jack and the narrator in Pam Houston’s “Selway” is an unusual relationship. The narrator talks about how they fight all the time and the only thing they have going for each other is the sex. The reader can also make the assumption that she doesn’t like normal relationships or normal partners because she states “My mother says I thrive on chaos, and I guess that’s true (Houston 25).” Jack likes to be free and be able to do as he pleases which includes his dangerous adventures. The reader knows this because the narrator states how she lets him go out and doesn’t try to keep him home like his old girlfriends did and that may be one of the reasons why they stay with each other through all of the arguing.
Now Jack is living with his daughter and granddaughter who easily let him settle into their fun and loving world. He is in heaven in this family, reminded of the pain of his past family, but able to enjoy pleasure of his present. He is able to give his granddaughter the middle name Janina, though he never tells another soul about his sister because the pain is too much. His identity, which has switched many times throughout the book, is finally, safely solid. In the arms of his granddaughter, he is

Backpacks: Rags To Riches Who would ever think of taking away a fireman's hose? Or taking away a baby's bottle? Or taking away a police officer's uniform? Or even taking away a student's backpack? That is exactly what happened after a facilitator tripped over one and got seriously hurt at South Western High School 10 years ago.
When he came out his mom was making him breakfast but without even looking at her he just walked out to school. He looked as mad as a bull that saw the color red. The whole day he was at school he didn’t say a word to anyone. After school ended Jack realized that he had to make a decision whether to accept that he’s moving and that he wants to move or he denies his mom’s choice and never talks to her again. When Jack got home he saw a car that he didn’t recognize outside his house.
Jack says that he is unwilling to be a part of Ralph’s group any longer. This goes to show that he has left the civilized part of him behind in favor of his savage side.

For what appears to be no reason, Jack decides that he’s “Going to beat Wilfred…. He got angry and made [the other boys] tie Wilfred up.”
The relationship worsened to the point of no return when Jack goes on a killing hunt for Ralph. This can be seen from the sentence “therefore would never let him alone; never.” The repetition of the word “never” suggests no release, which connotes that Jack had an ultimate goal in mind, which was to kill Ralph. Jack and Ralph felt a sense of revengeful hatred towards each other.
It could be that the violence of Jack is a part of Jack yet now it is amplified. It is not completely him yet it is a part of his character that took over Jack's whole personality. Furthermore, John Hutz says that “King's novel...investigates the complex ways in which the past acts upon – indeed, lives on in – the present.
