Sean here with the second to final chapter of the sound and the Fury and this time were going through Jason's point of view. Yet again if the reader is confused and hasn't seen the family tree that goes with this book that's the son Jason and the brother to Quentin, Benjy, and Caddy. Not the grandfather. Anyway the point to this is to analyze the chapter. The chapter this time was very complicated but not difficult. The theme here in this chapter was huge. Like in the past 2 chapters the old southern ways is yet again a huge theme in here. Jason's mother loves Jason the most of all her children because he has the most potential to carry on the old southern ways. His mother also wants him to carry on the legacy of his ancestors in the sense of success. His grandfather was a civil war general and his father a businessman. Jason falls short and end up being a shop clerk at a store, not as successful as his predecessors. Jason also fails in the sense of old southern ways as well as he doesn't have any respect for women. In the old south men would duel to restore a woman's honor. Jason also tends to be very racist. He says he's accepting of a man's religion but he fails to acknowledge that he's actually racist. I'll end this with a few questions. First of all where was time in this chapter as its a huge theme in this book? Why is Jason such a bitter and cruel child, what event had happened to make him hate everyone particularly women. There are a couple more comments I'll make as I better understand the book but that's it's for now. See you guys in the next post.
