- Annotation
- Refutes critics labeling of Nick s father as a villain, arguing instead that reading the story biographically and intertexually with other Nick Adams stories shows a warm and affectionate bond between Nick and his father. Rejecting the view that Mr. Adams is racist, unsympathetic, and cruel, Daiker points to his sensitivity in breaking the news about Prudence and symbolic association with light. Concludes that Prudence s harsh treatment by critics too is unwarranted, citing her young age.
