The Piano Lesson #2

In what we read today, we learn of the importance of the piano when multiple people ask to buy/sell it, but Berniece won't let it go. But, though we know that it's important, we have yet to find out why it's important. This mystery creates a sense of curiosity about the piano, and the determination of Bernice to keep the piano will probably clash with Boy Willie's determination to sell it, creating future problems.

Comment on Olivia Cordell's blog:
Although I disagree with the "like most young men are at around his age" part, Boy Willie does seem pretty selfish. It is also interesting how Berniece is rude to him, hinting about how untrustworthy he is. There is definitely a strange history behind them, and I'm curious about it.

  1. I agree with your analysis. Especially when you ask why. Maybe the piano has something to do with a ghost or apparition? There have already been reports of two ghosts: the one that supposedly pushed Sutter in, and Sutter himself.
