Native Son 4/2/09

Quote: "When Britten's voice ceased Bigger was smiling. Yes, Britten was trying to trap him, trying to make out a case against; but he could not find anything to go upon."(192)

Significance: Bigger comes off as sort of a maniacal genius. He seems to have everything figured out, and made a position for himself where he can't be caught. This shows that Bigger may not have been stupid, or even lazy. It was just the tasks that he decided to focus on in the past that distracted him from trying on what's really important.

Will Jan come for Bigger?
