After the concert, I did research over Mae Francis Moultrie and…

Although Ida Mae was not unhappy with her life, Wilkerson hints at an underlying question of whether it was all worth it for Ida Mae and whether she should have been more selfish when she is debating going to visit her sister Irene. “Eleanor said I was always doing what he said to do… She said I should go on up and see my sister” (p. 450).
