Today in English we looked over a test we took last week and I got a question wrong and so I asked my teacher if he could explain it. The question was about characterization and I had written that one of the characters was not romantic. But Mr. Emery said that the character was romantic because he slept with this girl Alberta and because he kissed his wife. What kind of definition for romance is this? Kiss your wife; sleep with some girl down the street? Mr. Emery’s got it all wrong and it makes me so sad. Not that I got the question wrong, but that he doesn’t seem to understand this notion of romance.
