A childhood recollection in which Bo recalls his father’s arrival home after long periods at sea. 2. What is the name of the hill that Bo wishes to visit and why is the station manager reluctant to let him go? The destination is Reeves Hill and it is treacherous to visit because of “Melt ice everywhere right now. Cracks in ice, lakes of water under it” which could easily drown or trap Bo in mud, especially if he wanders off the path. 3. On Page 64 amid beautiful imagery, there is the inclusion of “Papa-I am here” who is this character and why has Parrett introduced him?Parrett uses italics to introduce an inner monologue in which the reader is inside Bo’s head. He is talking to his father based on a childhood memory, indicating that Reeves Hill was a location his dad had visited many years ago, and had told him about as a young boy at home in Denmark. In many respects, Bo is following in his father’s footsteps in a number of ways i.e. as a sailor but also by voyaging to the Antarctic. charlotte_wells https://padlet.com/charlotte_wells/z26arfy9kox/wish/238474807 2018-03-06 07:34:23 UTC https://padlet.com/charlotte_wells/z26arfy9kox/wish/238474807 1. A very short chapter but nevertheless a significant one, what symbolic message lies at the core of “the sun / Rising – coming now / The night was over” about the narrator?Isla is perhaps coming to terms with living in Hobart and is less apprehensive about what the future holds. charlotte_wells https://padlet.com/charlotte_wells/z26arfy9kox/wish/238474809 2018-03-06 07:34:23 UTC https://padlet.com/charlotte_wells/z26arfy9kox/wish/238474809 1. “The beard of a winterer” on Page 58 triggers a memory of whom in Bo’s mind?
