"Here's a book.Jesse reached into his briefcase,then threw a paperback book at his client. It was A Gathering of old Men by Ernest J. Gaines. Read it. Look carefully at the language. Read each word aloud. Feel each word on your tongue. Once a week you will copy one paragraph from that book and mail it to me. " ( Vea,70)
I chose this quote to be significant because even though Biscuit boy was going to be in jail for a long time, Jesse didnt want him to lose his education so he gives him a book to read. This shows that Jesse is a kind guy who wants to help people such as Biscuit boy.
Why is the use" time traveling" used in the chapter?
I am a little confused is Calvin known as "biscuit boy" or is it eddy?
Im not 100 percent sure why time traveling is used in this cahpter but probably becase they want to show how people use to be. For example Jesse they go back and forth on how he use to be a soldier and with this knowledge we know why he stands up to Bernard and it gives us an insight on why hes not afraid of him.
