Question on ” A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings”
1.) It talks about a fallen angel and it is always good to start the young learning about angels and God. The story is kind of ironic, because you never heard of a fallen angel, besides Lucifer. He was kicked out of Heaven. Now it is impossible to be a fallen angel, because Jesus will not let you in if you have even a little bit of darkness in you.
2.) Elisenda does not trust the old man. She is afraid that he will try to take her baby. Pelayo thinks of as a harmless old man and turns him into a tourist sight and makes money off of the old man. Father Gonzaga thinks of him as an imposter, because the old man didn’t respond when Father Gonzaga spoke to him in Latin. Travelers thought of him as a tourist sight and just wanted to see him. The child of Elisenda and Pelayo was curious of the angel. They get their interpretation of him from the way he looked and the way he acted.
3.) At first people thought ” Wow a fallen Angel, this is the first one”, but towards the end that got used to him and just thought of him as any other person. Because the angel ” was no longer an annoyance in her life but an imaginary dot on the horizon of the sea.” Well one insight of why everyone went and saw at first and then stopped was people like new things for so long and then they are not new any more and are old and already been seen or used so many times. Another insight of why Elisenda was so happy when the old man finally left was because he was a nuisance and an annoyance.
