I have begun to read, but I am confused in some parts of the reading. How old is the boy? How come Ruth panicks about being seen breastfeeding him? Also how come Mr. Dead is so jealous of Milkman?
Ana--Not sure exactly how old he is, but the line "starting not so much from maternal joy as from a wish to avoid seeing his lags dangling to the floor" hints at his age. As for the father's anger, there are a number of reasons. Most will be revealed.
