Part two is about the downfall of Hiram McDowell but his downfall serves as a stepping stone to his reformation, which detached him from his old point of views. So i agree Part two it is.

I agree with your comment - I saw the book the same way. I thought he made real changes in the second half of the book. He was examining his life more as he struggled to write his memoir and seemed to appreciate people more as he met themSahani Nimandra wrote: ↑19 Oct 2018, 11:30 The author states that Hiram McDowell's development occurred in Part 1 and his decline in Part 2, but I see this otherwise. To me, Hiram started to live in Part 2 because of the people he met, while in Part 1 he was a self-absorbed and selfish person. What do you think?
