Symbolism of the gun from TOB

<< < (2/2)

 :) ok, like the rest of the Tremblayans, we know that Ang put a lot of symbolism, special touches, bookends and other neat coincidental ideas into the making of BBM that the layers peel like an onion and yet we never seem to reach the core - pretty amazing when you think about it!   Just when you think there is nothing left to decipher, someone comes up with something new that wasn't discovered before - wow!...........................most impressive! :D

Front-Ranger:
There's also a lot of symbolism in Annie Proulx's story, which Lee has expanded on, enhanced, and embroidered into a rich treasury.

serious crayons:
I'm bumping this because I hope a lot of people will get a chance to check out the gun thread that Front-Ranger so wisely posted. Clancypants has discovered a whole new, completely realized, extremely convincing metaphor that I for one hadn't even come close to thinking of. Once we got to buckets and coffee pots, I thought surely we had found every last one. Apparently not.

F-R is right to call clancypants remarkable. I had time to read just a few of his/her other posts, and they were awesome.
