I remember studying the novel many years ago. They talked about "flat" characters and "complex" characters. The flat ones were predictable and average. The complex characters were unique, unpredictable, and endearing or memorable. I guess we'd all like to think we're the latter.

The illustrations are wonderful. Walking distance from where I live there's a park which is home to hundreds of geese. One of them, like your ibis, has a limp, which distinguishes her from the others and makes her instantly recognizable. Because the geese are so hard to tell apart her limp confers on her a kind of specialness, an individuality. I've often thought that might be true of us as well. That it's our imperfections, our peculiar frailties which make us stand out from the crowd.nothingprofoundhttp://mydailyaphorism.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
