Barn Burning is a good story to read, but confusing at some times as it goes along. The story begins with the father being accused of burning a man's barn down probably because he was just mad at the man. The father is always the reason for the family moving so much which shows a pitiful excuse of a man if you ask me. As the family moves to another town, the father has an opportunity at another job for Major de Spain. This job does not last long because the father intentionally stepped in poop and ruined the rug in Mr. Spain's house. I do not get why the father intentionally ruined the rug because we all knew the owners were going to be very upset and punish him. Indeed, the father was punished and he had a plan to burn down his barn as well.
