June Boatright Hates Lily

by admin November 8, 2017 No Comments

June Boatwright hates Lily. But through out the novel drastic changes come over her. When June first meets Lily she despises her. Within a few short weeks, June accepts Lily. By the end of the novel June loved Lily like one of her own. She also changed from the fear of Neil and marrying him, to marrying the man that she loves before it was too late. At the very moment June saw Lily, June had already made up her mind that she did not like Lily. The reason June wasn’t a fan of Lily was that June’s sister August used to work for Lily’s mothers family and June did not like the concept of August working for them just because she is black.

But June changes her mind about Lily when they are playing with the sprinkler. She realized that Lily isn’t any different than them just because she is white. That Lily understands them. By the time June moves out of the house June loves Lily as if she were her own daughter. Scared is what June was in the beginning. She was afraid that if she really loved someone and they decided to get married, he would ditch her. This has already happened to June and she feels that if it happened once it could very well happen again.

After the tragedy of Mays death then reading her suicide note, June finally realized that you really only have one life to live so don’t waste it away. June knew she loved Neil. So June married Neil before it was too late and let all the fear melt away. By the end of the novel skin color dyed out, fear washed away, and resentment was gone. Love doesn’t care what color of skin you have. Love is forever and you need to act on it when it comes around. June realized this is what really is important and to live by it.
