Question
what is one thing another character says about lyons that reveals his character? what are two adjectives you would use to describe his character? what fences (figuratively) are in his life?
Brief Explanations
To answer these questions, we assume Lyons is from the play "Fences" by August Wilson.
- For the first question, Troy (Lyons' father) says Lyons is a "musician" who "ain't never done a day's work in his life" (paraphrased), revealing Lyons' focus on music over traditional work.
- For the second question, two adjectives could be "artistic" (due to his music career) and "carefree" (as he doesn't conform to Troy's work ethic).
- For the third question, figurative fences in Lyons' life include his strained relationship with Troy (a fence of generational conflict) and the societal expectations of stable employment (a fence limiting his artistic pursuits).
