One of the themes that I notived in this novel was struggling to find their identity. In this book the father, is dealing with an inner struggle to find his sexual identity. Even though he is married and with a family you get the idea from his behavior that he isnt happy. I would question the fathers motives for staying in his marriage and committed to his family. I think he did this because of societal views and opinions. Not everyone is accepting towards scenarios like this. Not just what the father was doing but in general.
The struggle to find his own identity and to be comfortable in his own skin. I found this concept to be releated to Eve Enslers I am an Emotional Creature. That book talks about how girls struggle to deal with coming into their own skin and finding out who they are. This is the definite age for teens, not just for girls but fot boys as well.
