The Wanderer

The man in "The Wanderer" seems to be confident and doubtful at the same time. The man seems to be confident because of the way that he is standing at the edge of a cliff. He also seems to be doubtful about his life, looking over the ocean. Maybe he is questioning his purpose in life? The way the man is dressed also gives an onlooker an idea about where the man stands in society. The man is well dressed, and is probably part of the upper class. "The Wanderer" relates to our senior class because the man is unsure about his future, as most of the seniors are, and because the seniors are on the edge of stepping into a new life represented in "The Wanderer" by how the man is just on the edge of the cliff.
