This broke something in me 😭
What degradation lay in being young, I thought, and fell to tearing my nails.
Rebecca, Daphne du Marier
The narrator’s choice to compare her relationship with Mr. de Winter and his ‘giving her his coat to wear’ to, not once but twice, how in a school context, a young boy may adore a well-respected and well-liked upperclassman and would find in taking care of his things, such as wearing his sweater, closer kinship, a sense of responsibility and inclusion in a task they were deemed worthy of, proximity to them as both the object of desire (of a platonic variety, if still not averse to the suggestion of undertones) and an ideal (to become? Not necessarily) is so fascinating to me in face of what typically is suggested of (notably) a young woman being given and wearing the clothes of a man (protection+association+ownership), and the shifting of positions between situations (the upperclassman being the object->the narrator being the object, the reversal of passivity of doing (through taking care of the coat) vs being done to (to being given the coat to wear)) informed by the social dynamics at play
