The bullfights find another form of significance in their paralleling of events in the characters’ lives. For instance, the first time they see the bulls as they are being unloaded into the corrals the first bull gores and kills a steer. This could be seen as parallel to the ensuing fight Mike and Cohn have. Mike himself compares Cohn to a steer—a castrated bull calf that grows into an ox—which fits on more than one level. Cohn is already an outsider to the group simply by being Jewish, as the…

Psalms 8 was a very straightforward piece and fairly easy to shuffle through. This directly influenced my reaction and decision to do this piece. I figured that it would be a simple piece to rewrite, plus it was short enough that this would be a doable task. My initial reaction to this chapter was a sense of impression. I wasn’t expecting all the things the author was able to pull in with only nine verses. They traveled from babies, to space, the heavens, and to humans and animals. They were…
