Question

1. How does Gene's feeling that each day is the start of a new life change after Finny's return to

Devon? Why do you think Gene's awareness changes in this way?

Answer 1

when he realizes that sleep only gives temporary relief but changes nothing.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Gene's feeling that each day is the start of a new life changes when he realizes that sleep only gives temporary relief but changes nothing. Gene thought about how Finny would have to wake up every morning believing that it is new day but only to find himself crippled and in a cast like any other day.

• Gene's awareness changed in this way because he realized that Finny had accepted his fate and has no regret of what had happened to him.
