   3.   Carol and Jhon ,are  first fine. But as the story developes so does their true intensions. Carol at first seems shy, timid, nice, pehaps even naive. you can tell by the way she carries herself, slouching. But as the story continues her character changes. She trasnsforms her clothing becomes sophisticated. No more baggy sweaters. And Jhon carries himeself very clean and neat. He manages to carry himself well all through the very end. Then at the very end after he has beaten Carol he is a wreck and with a bloody fist. I think it is then when his true colors come out. He had control at the beginning but then he lost it all. Carol on the other hand had no control at the start or the end only the middle. Her lack of dressing reveals she is not in control and maybe confused which ties in when she says that she does not understand Jhons book. In the middle of the story she is well dressed and has some control she"yells rape". Atleat she thinks she is in charge, she does foe a bit. Thant backfires and she gets beat. The way she is presented there there at the end shows that she had no contol. Meither had control and one was more mest up than the other, and that same person had proven the acussasion right.

  1. i never thought to consider John's bloody fist as a symbol of his character. Doing so makes him, towards the end, look like a bloodthirsty man when it comes to attaining his goals.

  2. John's character can be physically seen losing control far before he beats Carol. Carol and Jon's last conversation John can be seen pacing, shaking, with tattered clothes as he turns to smoking and drinking for his issues. Also, when John is held up in a hotel room his physical composure is much the same.
