I just recently read The Inverted Forest and I have to say it is certainly
one of my favorites. My questions are about Ray and Corrinne's
relationship. There is one point where the narrator tells Corrinne that
Ray does not and will not love her. She of course is upset by this, but I
feel she does not love him either. She is in love with an image of a 11
year old boy. Why does Corrinne marry him? She proven herself to be a
strong independent woman. Why does she suddenly feel she needs him
so much?
Next, why does Ray leave Corrinne for Bunny? This one really
confuses me. It may be easy to see Bunny just as some sort of con
artist, but I feel I may have missed some important things here. Is it the
alcohol, the lonliness, what?
Any thoughts?
Shannon
