The Piano Lesson 4

Close to the end of Act one, Scene 2, Berniece says: "You killed Crawley just as sure as if you pulled the trigger" (52). Now reading Berniece's reasoning for the accusation at Boy Willie I understand her feelings and why she might think that. I also feel for her, she lost her husband and she feels as if her brother had killed him, I would be just as upset as her if that happened to me. But after reading Boy Willie's side of the story I totally understand why he doesn't feel responsible for Crawleys death. The why Boy Willie explains it, it sounds like Crawley was asking for some one to kill him. These two different points of view make me very interested to see what else Boy Willie and Berniece disagree on besides Crawleys death and the piano.

Comment: I definatly think you are right about the connection with the piano and the ghosts. When Boy Willie and Lymom were moving it the heard the ghost of Sutter, who I think is connected witht he other ghosts.
