Character Analysis: Bricklayer's Boy
Imagine that time you finally decided what you wanted to be growing up. It feels wonderful as an adult to reach that moment. There are numerous adults that do not enjoy what they do, and have to tread to work every day. Then, there are those who absolutely love what they do, and are blessed to be able to do it. A big obstacle one faces is typically the separation of class. In “Bricklayer’s Boy”, Lubrano aspires to be a journalist. His father is a blue collar bricklayer who set aside his dreams and provided for his family; he knew Lubrano was not a blue collar fellow, but thought he should make better of himself in advertising. Bullheaded though, Lubrano begrudgingly told his parents he was moving to Columbus, Ohio to start his dream of journalism.
