In the novel, the theme of leaving home and escape from the small town are strong throughout. Each of the stories deals with how the characters either leave or stay. We have many stories like this in our American culture. There are also stories about returning home.How does your concept of home compare to the characters in the book? Did you seek to escape and remake your identity in choosing a college? Did you stay close to home? Do you dream of moving to a city, like LA? Use the text to formulate your comparison. Find evidence from the text to explain which character you sympathize with.
