The Green Mile part 2

During this section quite a bit happened. The mouse Mr. Jingles amazed the guards on the Green mile by his tricks that Delacroix supposedly taught him ( rolling a spoll and running across dealcroix's arms). Wild Bill was introduced in a choatic attack on Dean. Percy stood in shock while harry was thrown off of Bill. Eventually Brutus arrived and knocked him out cold. And John Coffey healed Paul of his horrible urinary tract infection. Paul was amazed but baffled at his cure at the hands of John Coffey. He thought god had given him healing powers yet John said he had healed him.

Yes a lot did happen in this section! It was a lot to take in but I think it gave us a great picture to where the book was headed. I think that Paul going to meet with the newspaper report gives the reader a lot to think about because now is it possible that Paul thinks John Coffey is innocent? Is John innocent or is this just a show he is putting on pretending to be this gentle giant. Also, Paul is convinced that John is some type of healer and knows that John healed him but isn’t quite sure what to make of it. I think that the fact that John healed Paul will come out and this will help everyone see that John Coffey may not be the evil black man that everyone has come to believe. Also, I loved the part where Wild Bill attacks Percy, it truly shows what a sissy boy Percy is.
