![]() ![]() The underground man says that he is not to blame for being a bad person, but that his “overly acute consciousness” prevents him from taking action. He tells his readers that he is “neither a scoundrel nor an honest man, neither a hero nor an insect,” and says that no one of intelligence in the 19th century can be a man of action or character. He has been living underground for twenty years, but used to work in the civil service, where he was rude to anyone who came to his desk. He says that he doesn’t know what he is sick with, but he refuses to be treated by doctors out of spite. The underground man begins by telling the reader that he is a sick, spiteful, unattractive man. A note from the author introduces a fictional character known as the underground man, who the author says is “representative of the current generation,” and whose rambling notes will form the novella that is to follow. ![]()

This is until she meets Michael Hosea, who falls in love with her at first sight and vows to cherish her for the woman she is and to marry her in a “taking her away from all this”-type gesture. ![]() Redeeming Love introduces us to Angel, a woman who was sold into prostitution as a child, and as she has grown into adulthood she has gotten used to be looked at as a commodity.

When she thinks in the present tense as a New Yorker, she has difficulty imagining herself marrying Hank and staying in Maycomb. Jean Louise’s fixation with the past is important to her relationship with Hank. The fact that Hank knows her eccentricities so well startles her. Hank asks why Jean Louise never drinks more than half of her second cup of coffee after dinner. He calls Jean Louise by her childhood name, Scout. A familiar black waiter named Albert briefly interrupts their conversation. ![]() ![]() Hank declares that he is not the wrong man. When Hank questions her sudden cynicism, Jean Louise apologizes, explaining that she is afraid of marrying the wrong man. She learned all this about romance, she says, from watching the failing marriages in New York. She tells him he is being too obvious about his uncertainty, that what women really want is to feel safe, understood, and protected. Hank tells Jean Louise that she is a mystery to him: Every time he thinks he has won her attention, she seems to slip away. They talk about their childhood games and make a plan to go to the river that evening. Things have changed since her childhood, and she tells Hank she doesn’t like the changes. On the way to the restaurant with Hank for their date, Jean Louise thinks about the history and culture of Maycomb. ![]() |
