My analysis of The Hours (middle section)
The second third of this book is even more interesting. I am starting to notice certain objects and such in the stories kind of running together in all three people. Also the plot is beginning to become better and more interesting. I have also noticed that each of the characters are becoming more and more depressed or in a way more crazy than before. I have noticed that the stories are starting to use some of the same themes or objects in each story. One in particular is when Mrs. Brown was making a cake for her husband and wanted to make it perfect. She was putting icing on it then she put yellow flowers around the edges then she put Happy Birthday Dan on the cake but she became very frustrated because the "n" on the name Dan got squished on the side of the flower and looked bad. Then when Virginia had her nephews and niece over they had found a dead bird. They decided to make a bow to let it die in and they put grass in the bottom of it (like frosting on a cake) then the niece wanted to put red roses around the outside first and Virginia asked if it would be better to but the bird in first then the flowers but the niece said no. S
It is like my best friend getting to go out with a really good looking guy and I do not even get noticed, like a jealous person. Virginia is an older woman who is not happy with her life and wants it to be more perfect, Clarissa wants Richard to love only her but he will not, and Mrs. Brown was the worst off of them all. Brown is totally confused with her life mainly because she is pregnant. It is just that she kissed her friend in front of her son and he saw everything. o that was a pretty big coincidence between the two stories. She is pregnant which probably is affecting her emotions and such but she has mood swings left and right! First she just wants to crawl back up to bed and read a book and try to get lost in the book, and then she gets upset because the cake is not perfect so she throws it away! I mean that is strange to just throw away a perfectly good cake that someone made with their son. That was a little strange to me but I guess she is really unsure of her life. The plots are also getting more interesting between all the characters. All these new plots that are beginning now are really more fun to read and get into so it is great. Brown is talking about how she loves her husband yet she ends up kissing her best friend on the lips. Brown story she made a reference to Virginia about how she put rocks in her pockets and drowned herself. Then there is Clarissa that is in love with Richard but can not have him all to herself because Richard and another lady like each other too.
