To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She washes out her mouth so that Benjy will be serene again (57-58). This scene is repeated a few years later when she has her affair with Ames. Again she responds to Benjy's intuitive bellowing against impending disaster, crying with him and tending to his fury. But this time because she becomes pregnant, she knows that she cannot protect him anymore. She, therefore, pleads with Quentin to look after Benjy and her father for her (131, 138, 143). But Quentin distorts this request of Caddy and c...hides her by accusing her of not loving Benjy and father anymore. Thus Quentin even rejects the Good Mother qualities in Caddy, again depriving himself of any feminine counterbalancing agents to support his disintegrating psyche. If Quentin refuses to accept Caddy as a Good Mother, he will certainly reject her when she displays the 75 characteristics of the Terri bl e Mother. Neumann maintains that the precondition for any development of adolescent ego consciousness is to overcome the domination of the archetypal Great Mother, a totality that encompasses I o qualities of the Terrible Mother.
