Character Comparison

Two characters that are nice to compare are Homero and Cosima. There are many adjectives that describe both of them together. One would be that they are both very solitary. Homero has lived alone ever since Hallie left for college and even before that, he was never that social with Codi or Hallie. Codi, although she has been with Carlo for quite some time, has really never felt like she has belonged anywhere. Now, when she is teaching in Grace, she lives alone in her high school friend, Emelina Domingos, guest house next door to Emelina. Another desciptive adjective about them would be that they are very caring. However, they show their care in very different ways. They both care very much for Codi’s sister Hallie, who is down in Nicaragua. Codi is not afraid to show her emotios because she has broken down in front of the class and spazzed at them so badly that they probably didn’t want to come to class the next day. She also starts calling the Nicaraguan Department of Agriculture quite a lot. Homero, however, is much more quiet and does nothing but wait until he hears more news about Hallie getting captured. An adjective that would describe Homero, but not Codi, is descriptive. He likes to notice every detail and it shows by how specific he is when he does his photography. An adjective that would describe Codi is curious. She likes to know a lot of Grace’s history as well as her dim past. She also would like to know a bit more about Loyd’s past as being part of multiple Indian tribes.
