542 Words3 Pages

Throughout these past couples of week reading Soledad Brother I found out a lot about him and his life. The one thing that stuck to me or that I related to were the letters with his mother. There were some letters that I read and related to nothing. Then there were others that put me in his shoes while writing these letters. The first later I related to the understandment he felt for the consequences he was receiving for what had happen. He talks about how the system gave him 18 months to do. He doesn't seem upset, nor happy, but prepared. Prepared as in he knew what was coming to him. The way I related this to was because although we weren't in the same circumstances. There were similar feelings and characteristics in both our situations.

Kachur claims that vital information from the narrator is omitted because it seems not important to readers, but that same information is the one that describes the motives and the challenges presented by the author. This essay really caught my attention in ways that I would never imagine. Kachur argues that the narrator obsession is based in “father-on-son incest”. He supports his idea with three possible hypothesis: first, the narrator was a victimized child that resulted with some psychotic symptoms; second, the narrator is re-enacting his abuse to make the old man feel what he suffered; and for last, the old man is a victim of the narrator´s threat of incest.
