Another Question
about the same scene. there was something about her "mouth on the dead man's fingers." and i was wondering what that was about. did she have an affair? and if not what turned sour in their relationship, cause it seemed like Macon and Ruth were romantic at sometime but now he's disgusted by her.

The middle of Chapter 3 will clarify "mouth on the dead man's fingers." But when you read it, remember that you are getting one person's side of a story. Beginning of Chapter 5 will give you the other side of the same incident.

The actual event remains - dare I say it, Tu-Uyen, ambiguous. But that's okay for many reasons, not least of which is that the different versions of the event tell us much about all of the characters and something about the messiness of "the truth."
