In truth she is somewhat less perfect than he pictures her, and after her husband’s death she drinks too much and looks to other men for emotional and financial support. By the time Niel leaves home to start his adult life in Boston, he feels only a “weary contempt” for her. Niel learns much later, however, that she has managed to escape the stifling Midwest, and he comes to understand how much she affected his young life.
