主要人物
“去英雄化”---关注身边平凡的你我
– Clark
– He would not go to Hy and Robert Buckley’s Building Supply in town, which he
called Highway Robbers Buggery Supply, because he owed them too much
money and had had fight with them.
– Clark had fights not just with the people he owed money to. His friendliness,
compelling at first, could suddenly turn sour. (Incidents at the drug store and
the coffee shop)
– Carla
– Some place Clark made Carla go because of some row
– She had not said anything about his row with Joy Tucker
– Carla’s changing attitudes toward Sylvia “I didn’t hear the car”
– “Just don’t be mad at me”
– Carla’s lies (to please Clark)
