In "To Da-Duh, in Memoriam" Da-Duh is the grandmother who is a very diverse character. In this story she is perceived as a kind of stuck up old lady. At the same time though, her granddaughter is pushing her down, figuratively. This story really brings out all the different characteristics of a character.
Da-Duh is a main character in her memoriam. At the beginning her daughter and granddaughters describe her as some ugly old bag of a grandmother. Then by the end she turns out to be an understanding grandmother. "To Da-Duh, in Memoriam" really captures the essence of how main characters develop overtime.
Great post, Tyler. I also think that Da-Duh's complex character is at the heart of this story. Your analysis is very thorough and I like that.
ReplyDeleteDeff agree Tye, Da-Duh is kind of mean and it gives contrast between her and her granddaughter. I just wish she was nicer.
