...paper on it? if any one has read this book i could really use helping understanding the meaning of the silences. this is a copy of the syllabus my teacher gave me:
Throughout the novel, drums, music and the town crier's voice punctuate the narrative at key moments. When does silence occur and what does it mean? Is there more than one type of silence? Can silence be characterized as a positive or negative occurence? What are the implications of the fact that Unoka takes his flute with him to the Evil Forest when he dies
