Thank you so much for posting again, and for bringing along such a lovely poem. I think your perspective on Laurie is very apt, really...it's easy to forget, over the course of the story, how limited Laurie's life has really been, and how (as you say) she finds herself having to adjust to her new place in the world. Such a huge step for her, and as I go back and reread the GN I'm struck by how much courage she shows in the face of such an enormous change.
