The Dew Breaker

The Dew Breaker In my reflection of The Dew Breaker I’m going to the story “Night Talkers,” where Dany is trying to get through past traumas about his family. He wants revenge, but he doesn’t really know if he can actually go through with it. Dany lost his parents at the age of six. He had built up a lot of anger and he wanted revenge on the man that murdered his parents. Dany learned of the whereabouts and occupation of his parents’ killer, he says, “The man who had killed his parents was now a barber in New York.” (p.105). So he went to look for him and he found out a detail from some guys, he says, “Some guys from work had told him that a barber was renting a room in the basement of his house.” (p.105). He is trying to get through his most traumatic part of his life by revenge. He talks about how he saw his parents, “The smoke was so dense he could barely his parents, his mom was slumped over his father on the ground.” This was his great trauma that was so hard for him to overcome. Over the years he had so much anger towards this man, the barber, that he wanted to just kill him. So he did so much to try and get as close as possible to him. He tried to see the barber very often he say, “He visited the barbershop regularly for haircuts.” (p.106). He did this so that he could just study the barber, he just wanted to be close to a this man that took so much for him. Dany really wanted the barber to recognize him he says, “He never turned down the shaves, for he thought it would give him a chance to have a closer look at his face, to remember him.” (p.106). He wanted the barber to know who he was. He wanted him to know who his killer would be and the reason why Dany had so much hatred for the barber. The barber though never showed any signs of remembrance of this man he would shave. Instead all he saw was a man that was difficult to shave because he would shake and sweat off the shaving cream. Finally Dany had his opportunity to get his revenge on
