Piano Lesson #5

In this chapter, characters are developed more, especially Sutter's ghost and Wining Boy. When Doaker tells that he too had seen the ghost, it further adds to the realism and believability of the ghost. Sutter's ghost really becomes a character in this book after this chapter. We also see what Wining Boy is like. Throughout this chapter, he is very concerned about money. He tries to sell all of his possessions to make a profit, even if that means using his own family. He seems to be consumed by gambling.

From Olivia's blog:

Yes, the humor in this scene is a great example of comic relief. It helps take away from the seriousness. Also, it show what the characters are like. You can see that Wining Boy has a sense of humor, but also that he thinks he is experienced when it comes to women. The type of jokes that he delivered show that he is immature.
