Talk:Bitter Green

Untitled
I think it's not about a woman at all. I think it's about a dog. ("Waiting for her master" and "waiting for someone to take her home"). / Antonysson (talk) 15:14, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

I agree with Antonysson (and I don't even have a dog). Are there any actual references for the original interpretation? Because I think that several textual clues point to Bitter Green's being a dog. E.g I don't think, even in 1969 it was common for people to refer to a woman's lover as her "master." And "loving everyone that she meets" - is this lady a prostitute? Really, is there any actual evidence one way or the other? Otherwise, at the least, the entry should indicate that the interpretation is disputed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Snkamin (talk • contribs) 03:57, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
