3rd post

"It seemed strange to me at the time that faculty advisers would take their female students out on dinner dates, but it has become much clearer to me now. Among the names on Delia's lover list was one Horest Vining, English Department, Columbia University"(p 88 Groom).

--In this passage Johnny figures out that Delia had a thing going on with her teacher. His love or lust for her is blinding him to see the real Delia, but makes him see only the Delia that he remembers. But at this point I think the reader and Johnny will realize and the story will revile some aspects of the past life of Delia.

Who is Delia?
How did Delia become this mysterious person?
What is her secret?
