Right now in Rebecca , our heroine is about to leave the hotel she is staying in in England to accompany her employer on a trip to New York (possibly.... That is, I predict this trip for her will not take place). As she speaks of this new route her life is about to take , she goes on a tangent about change. Change is something different. For her, it's moving from place to place; whether it's from one room to another, or one country to another, change is change! But, what she says is that no matter how long you're there and why you're there, the moment you share with that place is yours to keep: no matter how significant or insignificant. This idea of change reminds me of The Catcher in the Rye . Holden being scared of change and trying to hold on(Holden's name is like "hold on") to all that is familiar and innocent to him. This change that Holden is going through is adolescence, and the change the main character emphasizes in the story is change from one place to another, when in reality, she is describing the change she is going through from being a school girl to becoming a real, sophisticated woman. Talk about coincidences! It seems change is a popular topic to write about on the account that everyone goes through it and it is easy for no one.
Well, hopefully our heroine will not have to really go through this unhappy change if Mr. De Winter has any feelings toward her (which I think he does). Will her pursuit for happiness succeed? We will soon find out!
