Question

Everyday Use" by Alice Walker, what is the most likely reason that Dee takes pictures of her mother and Maggie when she first arrives at the house?

Answer 1

She takes so many pictures because of how disconnected and resentful she is of her home. she is unable to approach it as being the place where she grew up and instead has to deal with the house as if she is a tourist visiting an internist landmark. The camera is a defense mechanism.
