Slide 6 - Tekstslide

  • Example: Christopher fully believes his mother is dead (because his father told him so)
  • Christopher doesn't react emotional to the fact that his mother might be alive. He's only curious about finding out the truth. This happens throughout the book.
  • The story about the mother dying was very vague, the affair with the neighbour who dissapeared as well could also be foreshadowing.
