Chapter 7 – Teacher
We learn Matt doesn’t like to leave apartment too often because of how he is treated by the other people living in the Big House. Tom routinely visits Matt along with Maria, and Matt and Tom get in a fight, broken up by Tam Lin. Matt then wanted both Maria and Tom to leave.
Maria and the other children left the Big House to go away to school. Tam Lin tells Matt criticism) that El Patron has made choices to live his life the way he has – “Very Dark indeed is his majesty…” (p 70). Matt is provided with a teacher (an eejit). The Teacher learns that Matt still is not talking. Matt is finally motivated to speak due to a combination of frustration with the Teacher and poor self esteem. The Teacher doesn’t understand Matt’s reaction, and is escorted out by Tam Lin. Matt doesn’t understand what is meant by Tam Lin’s description of her as an eejit. Tam Lin promises to take Matt on a picnic to celebrate the fact he is now talking.
