Question

What happened to Salva’s uncle? Infer: Why may this have happened?

Answer 1

Answer:

Uncle was shot by the Nuer men. Salva is numb with shock but surprisingly his uncle's spirit is in him. The group treats Salva like a child, shares no food with him, and makes him feel unwanted.

The men are from the Nuer tribe. They may have singled Uncle out because he was the leader and had a gun. Their laughter was evil means that Salva can hear the danger in their voices and perhaps he has some

inkling of what they may do.
