Does Bone's mother choose her husband over her daughter when she gives Bone her birth certificate and leaves? What do you think happens next?
Does Bone's mother choose her husband over her daughter when she gives Bone her birth certificate and leaves? What do you think happens next?
Raylene brings an apathetic and angry Bone back to her home where she tells Bone that Anney has disappeared with Glen. Bone remains mute and unresponsive for days as Raylene and her uncles attempt to communicate with her. One night Anney arrives, assures Bone that she loves her, and leaves her a gift: an envelope containing an unmarked copy of her birth certificate. Bone reflects on Anney’s life and concludes that she is destined to be a Boatwright woman, like her mother before her. I think Anney cannot handle bringing up Boon: she is too immersed in her trauma. I really don't know what happens next.
