[問題] 關於The Jilting of Granny Weatherall
<The Jilting of Granny Weatherall> 作者: Katherine Anne Porter
最近在讀這篇小說，由於它是意識流的小說，看得有點小混亂；
又有關這篇小說的資料好像不多，想請有讀過這篇小說的大大幫忙解惑。
由故事，Granny是個已經進入彌留狀態的老太太，在彌留狀態，
她的思緒會不斷的在現時與潛意識交錯。其中有一段在描述她在婚禮被Geroge拋棄:
「Since the day the wedding cake was not cut, but thrown out and weasted.
The whole bottom dropped out of the world, and there she was blind and
sweating with nothing under her feet and the walls falling away. His hand had
caught her under the breast, she had not fallen.....」
(1)請問這裡的His hand是誰的手?
接下來還有一段，「Granny stepped up in the cart very lightly and reached
for the reins, but a man sat beside beside her and she knew him by his hands,
drining the cart.」
(2)請問這裡的His hand又是誰的手?
(3)Granny說她在60歲的時候就準備好要死了，那又為何在80歲的現在又說她不想死?
最後，Granny祈求「God, give a sign!」
「For the second time there was no sign. Again no bridegroom and the
priest in the house...............I'll never forgive it. She stretched herself
with a deep breath and below out the light.」
請問(4)這裡的bridegroom是耶穌嗎?
(5)I'll never forgive it. 是指她不能原諒神沒有來接她去天堂嗎?
(6)最後一個問題，這樣的一個堅強又能幹的女人，最後是上天堂還是下地獄阿?
抱歉，問題真的很多....ˊˋ
可否請有看過這篇小說的人幫個忙，先謝謝囉!
