Post #4

In the beginning of The Gilda Stories, it seemed as if Gilda was searching for a purpose. She moved from place to place trying to find where she truly belonged. She met several people that in some way had an impact on who she was such as Aurelia and Julius. She also engaged in different activities and professions ranging from a beautician or singer to a well known novelist.

In the final chapters, we get the sense that Gilda has discovered where she belongs and what her purpose is. She is no longer looking for companionship because she sees that all those she has become close to , Julius, Bird, Effie, Sorel, and Anthony, are all there for her. She no longer needs to move from place to place, seeking out connections that will make her feel whole. She sought out a family, and found one in all those she met throughout the years.
