The Piano Lesson Act 2 Scene 2

Avery does not seem to be interested in marrying Berniece for the right reasons. It sounds like he wants to marry her to attract more people to his Church. It doesn't seem like he really cares about Berniece. He starts out with saying how it looks to have a preacher unmarried. To me it sounds like he wants to marry Berniece for the Church politics rather than love.

  1. Yea I also found this strange and wonder if its just trying to depict the differences between the two time periods culture and how they choose a spouse.
