Quote #10
[the little boy in the barn:] "Says he wasn't hungry, or he jus' et. Give me the food. Now he's too weak. Can't hardly move." (30.206)
In this last scene, we see an example of a family who still knows what it means to be a family, even in dire circumstances. The starving father is a reminder of the selflessness, of the sense of community that once was associated with the idea of family, and his son has not left his side.
