1. Why does Vardaman keep referring to the things in the little tall black circles? He references them twice looking up at the sky. Darl also references them hanging high against the sky in narrowing circles like smoke. What do they represent?
2. Why does Darl narrate about himself in his last chapter after he has been sent to Jackson? He says "Darl has gone to Jackson" as if an onlooker is narrating and "Darl is our brother" as if he is not narrating but another sibling is.
