I kind of think the point is all the characters, the engine driver, the lineman, the moneylender, all know who they are. They tell their jobs and seem to accept what they are. But the writer doesn't know who he is. He just writes to keep away a person who he loved. He doesn't really have that much of an identity separate from her because whenever he talks about himself, he relates it to this other person. Just how I see it :-) |
