Red
From Night by Elie Weisel
". I looked at my little sister, Tzipora, her blond hair neatly combed, her red coat over her arm: a little girl of seven. On her back a bag too heavy for her. She was clenching her teeth; she already knew it was useless to complain. Here and there, the police were lashing out with their clubs: “Faster!” I had no strength left. The journey had just begun and I already felt so weak . . ."
Dexter emphasizes the use of the word pretty during the final dialogue of Scott Fitzgerald's Winter Dream. This is because it is aggressive the insinuation of his interlocutor that the beauty of Judy is not such, since that beauty was the engine that drove his dreams of youth. The news of Judy's situation impacts him because he realizes that he can not go back in time and that in his current world there is nothing that could interest him or cause him the emotion he felt for Judy at the time.
