The chapter headings are revealing and show a sequence. The last two chapter headings, like these chapters themselves, feel different from the others. How do these function as concluding chapters? Are they ways of dealing with the lurid sensations Singer raises? How does Ansky handle these lurid situations? Bashevis Singer has been accused of writing pornography -- could Ansky be accused of doing the same?
