Themes of Grief, Loss, and Memory
Grief is a powerful emotion that can consume us and leave us feeling lost and alone. In Build Your House Around My Body, Ruthie's grief is palpable. She is consumed by her pain, and she feels like she is losing her mind. But even in her darkest moments, Ruthie never gives up hope. She knows that she must find a way to move on, and she is determined to find a way to heal.
Loss is another major theme in Build Your House Around My Body. Ruthie has lost her husband, and she feels like she has lost a part of herself. She is struggling to find her place in the world, and she is haunted by the memories of her past. But even though she is grieving, Ruthie is also learning to live again. She is finding new ways to connect with the world, and she is finding new ways to find joy.
Memory is a powerful force in Build Your House Around My Body. Ruthie's memories of her past are both a source of pain and a source of strength. She is haunted by the memories of her husband, but she also finds comfort in the memories of their time together. Ruthie's memories are a reminder of both the good and the bad times, and they help her to come to terms with her loss.
Non-Linear Narrative
Build Your House Around My Body is told in a non-linear narrative. This narrative structure helps to create a sense of disorientation and confusion, which reflects Ruthie's own state of mind. The novel moves back and forth in time, and it often jumps between different points of view. This can be challenging for readers, but it also helps to create a more immersive and emotionally resonant experience.
The non-linear narrative also helps to highlight the themes of grief, loss, and memory. By moving back and forth in time, the novel shows how Ruthie's past and present are inextricably linked. It also shows how memories can be both a source of pain and a source of strength.
Build Your House Around My Body is a haunting and thought-provoking novel that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. It is a novel that explores the darkest corners of the human psyche, but it also offers a glimmer of hope. It is a novel that will make you think, and it will make you feel.
