In “The Bride Comes To Yellow Sky” by Stephen Crane, the narrator’s attitude toward Jack Potter is interesting. Jack Potter is the marshal of his town and is arriving back after getting married in San Antonio. He’s afraid of what the people of his town will say because he got married and didn’t tell anyone about it. He feels as though he had to run the idea by them first because of the tradition they’ve been keeping. I think it’s kind of silly for him to not marry the woman he loves before telling the whole town about it and feeling bad about not doing so as well. The narrator also thinks its silly. When telling reasons why Potter feels guilty the narrator says “or of an unspoken form which does not control men in these matters, that he felt he was heinous. He had committed an extraordinary crime”. I feel as though the narrator was amused by how Potter was over reacting and was poking fun at Potter. Its also like the narrator feels a little sympathetic towards Potter at the same time by the way it makes you also hope that he ends up okay.
