I think it is really interesting that "The Reader's" situation parallels Iris Beadie's situation, and Mary's advice could apply equally to both characters. Coincidence? Or genius literary device? You be the judge.
Is Mary suggesting that the deadbeat son (ahem. Tommy) should get a job on a Santa Royale fishing boat? He could end up as a cast member on The Not Particularly Deadly Catch.
Cast a wider net, maybe? Can you really stretch a net? My comment today is totally worth my time simply because one of my wv's is Opium. I'll bet Tommy is going to need some if his mom and Wilbur continue on this annoying path.

This storyline makes me want to stab myself.
