Textual Analysis

I will be analyzing page 39.

The first thing I notice is that Jamie's mom probably does Heroin because they describe her as "pasty and pale" and they also say that she has marks on her arm but Jamie doesn't know that because he is too young to understand. Also, Jamie's mom is a prostitute that is constantly  having "new male friends" over to there house. She will also take the "friends" into her bedroom and blast the TVs sound. There is very sad part when Jamie gets home from the shrine, his mom is sitting on the coach and he is kinda shocked that she is not with a new friend. He and his mom sit on the coach and this is one of the first times Jamie thinks hes having a normal moment with his mom but a man yells and Jamie's mom to come upstairs and he realizes that his mom is still the same way she used to be.
