“I’m wondering, if you know what being intimate means. Now tell
me. What you think it meant,” (Munro 144)? Edie is young and naive. She does not actually know what she is doing
and the full impact that it will have. The
narration of the story is by Edie multiple years into the future. This narration gives a slightly detached feel
to the story. Multiple times through out
the story the narrator mentions how naive she was at the time. Chris is a flighty Pilate which has a stoker
for a fiancé. He must have a somewhat boring life. He is continually running
from his fiancé and having to make small talk to all the different passengers
he takes on flights. Mrs. Bird is very
much like a bird. She invites herself
over a lot and trying to figure out as much as she can about what is going on
in the house. It sounds like from the amount of time she spends visiting the
neighbors that she would be neglecting her children.
