@[erinnalexis:6565] I'm late to the party here, but thought it would be good to clear this up: the narrator/father physically missed the graduation. The son actually punched the Nichols boy. He was angry, likely because his father missed his graduation. The son is angry at his father for being absent and alcoholic and "he gets all that anger from me," meaning the narrator had the same problems with his father. It's a very moving short story that illustrates the repetitive cycle that addiction can cause in families, especially when it's clouded with this much denial. |
