Now that I have reached the ending of novel Breath, Eyes, Memory by Edwidge Danticat I have a very different view for each character in the novel then I did from first begging the novel. To start with main character Sophie, I believe she turns into a mature women. It hurt me that only through Sophie’s mother’s death is where Sophie has grasp new understandings with life, and her mother, but its better late than never. Yes, the death of Martine is extremely sad, especially it being that it was a suicide, but it gives us, the readers a better understanding of Martine’s true pain. Martine was not a stabled character; she was sad, depressed, and tragic. Also, it gives us a new type of Sophie who’s able to now understand her mothers pain. Sophie is also now able to love her mother to the fullest, as she was not able to do before.
