You can see the brother’s relationship change quickly in the end of the story. This story gives readers hope that people can change for the better. Through the brother’s trials and tribulations, their relationship was weak but as time passed, their relationship became stronger than they could have ever imagined. Baldwin uses symbolism of blues and jazz music, light and darkness creating an image for the reader of who the characters are. Although both brother’s suffered through the process of regaining their friendship, without a question, love or each other overcame any obstacle. Baldwin leaves us thinking as to what happens after that night. They end a memorable night bonding as brothers should with everything that has happened in the past, in the past.

This movement represents fragility, which together with the overall position of the man contradicts the…
