The Peahens
Several of the characters keep some pretty big secrets, such as the way Abby keeps her friends away from her hippy parents. How does keeping her family background a secret affect Abby's life? When her friends finally meet her family, are they as horrified as Abby thinks? If they had met during the girls' college years, would their reaction have been different?
"The neighbors are neglecting their exotic birds." "The peacock bleated and bobbed around the pen, and the peahens followed. One of the peahens was slower than the other one, and she limped as she tried to keep up."
What is the metaphor of the peahen? Why is Abby so upset about the injured peahen?
