TKAMB Chapters 15-16
When reading these chapters the think that I appreciated the most was Scouts lack of understanding. When confronted with the possible threat of her fathers safety she comes to "save the day" without knowing what she was even doing. The whole unreliable narrator thing gets me because not only is Scout not understanding what she's doing, she admitting it and as a child that's hard to sometimes do. When she was speaking to Mr. Cunningham her lack of know lags of the situation made me think of how unbiased and pure the view of a child is to this horrible world she is living in. Not only did that bit intrigued me, but when getting to the court case she heard the chat between the old men who were having the conversation about her father. She didn't know the whole story and when finding things out from bits of conversation she didn't fully understand that even if her father was appointed to do the case he didn't really have to defend Tom Robinson. With this unreliable narrator thing, it really shows that by her not understating it blurs out thing that may seem important, but also brigs to light things that would have never crossed your mind
