In Notes of a Native son the narrator´s father according to the narrator is described as a person that is unsociable, that cannot interact well with other people, maybe a little shy, this can be understood because of his problems as a black man and how racism affected him all through his life, how that life that he wanted to live, and maybe desired for his son wasn´t actually available for him, it was maybe more that the situation surrounding him was what made him Unsociable, rather than him being like that all along.
