Character Sketch


Karen:

Karen is in denial. She is consistent in trying to maintain a sense of normalcy throughout. "She challenged its irregularity by introducing normalcy: her friends presence, bookshelves, peaceful conversation" (37). 
I found her general existence a falsity. I don't believe anything she has to say and her emotion is meaningless after finding out that she has been unfaithful: "Refer to footnotes 19 and 20 concerning Karen's infidelities" (83). 
I hate her character. She seems like a cookie-cutter wife/mother with no regard for anything but herself and her appearance. "I don't care, stop drilling holes in my walls" (30)
