I have continued to read The Memory Keepers Daughter, Although it has began to drag, I want to finish it. The plot did take two interesting turns. First, Caroline has a real-life encounter with David at his art display. the do began to talk, but the damage David has done is not going away easily. Caroline silently slips out a back door and vanishes from Davids grasp. David then feels as if any hope he had of getting his daughter back in his life has been extinguished. Feeling lost and hopeless, David wanders back to his home, so long forgotten. His old house whispers of his dead sister June, and his dead parents simple lives. David falls asleep in an old bed, only to awake to being tied to that very bed. A young pregnant girl has been living inside the old run down house, and she is very suspicious. After talking for awhile and revealing all his secrets to this unknown girl she decides to untie him. David will return to his home with Norah and Paul, with an un-telling guest.
To say the least these turns in the plot have once again caught me. The only real connection I made was with how David appeared to feel when Norah has absolutely no understanding of why he must have brought this unknown girl back to his home. I have been in a relationship with another person, where they can't even begin to understand why I did something. Like David, I was unable to explain my reasoning, it was an action reigned by my hearts ambition.
The photo I used was how I picked the unknown homeless girl looking. She was portrayed as vulnerable by strong and independent. David kept saying, "I'm a Doctor, a doctor won't hurt you." But still she won't untie him.
