Zoë is a nut case. This story makes love sound like a
hopeless cause. Zoë is a lonely woman
living in Illinois. She teaches a history class but really does
not teach her students much of anything she really just uses them as a
backboard for her venting. She is really
only holding her position because the collage needs a woman teacher. Her life is very boring she writes books and
watches TV. The closest person to her is
a cab driver and she does not really notice him. Her sister is close but she is thinking of
getting married and has passed up Zoë in life and is now trying to help her
along instead of being helped. All of
Zoë’s boyfriends have not been interesting enough for her. The man her sister sets her up with is boring
and does not under stand her then she tries to push him off the roof. Her miss
fit life in this world is like the moons light on a lake. “If there were a
lake, the moonlight would dance across it in conniptions,” (Moore 370).
