An excerpt from Strength in What Remains:
Anyone who has been far away from home has felt the oddness of its
seeming at once very close and very far away. Home as he’d known it was right
there in the light of dawn at the windows in Nancy and Charlie’s front room, in
the thoughts that arose as he bent over the radio in the Black Hole late at
night, listening for news of Burundi. But he was conscious—it felt like
grief—of the great physical distance and the impossibility of actually being
home (107).
Your task:
Analyze the language of this excerpt from Chapter 8. What do we learn about Deo
in this passage? Apply your understanding of the two vocabulary words we’ve
just learned (VESTIGE and VISCERAL)
in your response.
