Pressure in "Crabbe"
In my novel Crabbe, pressure is the most important element, it changes the
protagnist Crabbe a lot. The first kind of pressure Crabbe faces is from his
parents. Crabbe is a very smart guy and he has very good mark. His parents
want Crabbe to go to university, Force him to study and they refused to let
him do what he wanted. This pressure makes Crabbe feel angry and rebel. In
the story, Crabbe told his Dad "From the very beginning you've treated me like
a two-year-old. I'm supposed to bare my bloody soul to total stranger who's
already decided I'm a suicide. Why don't we talk at these stupid meetings? Why"
(Crabbe Pg.17) He does not want to listen to his parents anymore, So he
decided run away from the home. In the story, it's says "One night, just before
the final exams.18-year-old Crabbe- smart, rich, yet unhappy and semi-
slcoholic-packs his gear and drives away into woods to disappear completely".
Second, Crabbe faces a new kind of pressure in the forest, He feels so lonely
when living in the forest by himself. He did not get ready for life out here. He
has no clothes to keep warm, and he is scared at night, everything dark makes
him panic, In the story, It's says "A short time later I awoke, hungry and very
thirsty" (Crabbe Pg.64) It cause him to begin to find the way out until he falls
from the waterfall, a girl named Mary saves him, Crabbe then begins living
with her and she teaches him how to live in the forest. During this time, Crabbe
learns how to love and get along with others from Mary. In the end, the
pressure chaned Crabbe from an angry rebel and semi-alcoholic boy to a good
and considerate boy.
