Ambivalence toward jobs, men, apartments, and children is a recurring theme. Why do you think that is? Did you feel ambivalence toward these things when you were in your twenties? Are you ambivalent now?
"Connor screamed with all of his might. He fought against it with everything he had. All he wanted was to know what to expect. His world didn't look like he'd thought it would, and she understood. How could he ceep calm if he couldn't see? Isabella lay on the floor of the playroom upstairs and listened. She heard the screams and she knew exactly how he felt. He was right--she could hear it on her insides." (end of chapter "Blind")
Does Isabella's realization of Connor's problem help her? Who else could this passage describe?
What do you think about the "Summer of Yes"? (also in "Blind") Does it help the girls meet people outside of their immediate circle?
