The Charmer *Now with Pictures!*

This is a picture that I found that could connect with the short story "The Charmer".


I think that this picture connects well because at a point in the story, Zachery's parents (mostly his father) yell at him. Zach then proceeds to say that he is "no longer worthy to be called thy son" and should be "one of thy hired servants" which was his usual excuse to tear up his parents and make them forgive him. This time was different though, with his dad giving him the options to live up to his words, and actually help around the house, or to just leave.Without even thinking twice, he leaves and hitches rides on trains taking him to small towns where he tries to start a new life, and (as far as we know) fails.
