Relationships:

In Chapter 6, Frank’s relationship with the old man seemingly foils the relationship Frank has with his father. Frank and the old man have shared a father-son relationship, contrasting with Eldon’s absence and inability to care for himself and Frank. Wagamese demonstrates the father-son relationship between Frank and the old man by describing the knowledge and skills that the old man has passed down to Frank, specifically knowledge about the land. The old man instructs Frank to give thanks and pray when he kills an animal, thereby instructing Frank to feel when he prays. There exists a spoken emotional connection between the old man and Frank, unlike that between Frank and Eldon. The old man marking Frank’s face with the blood marks the racial difference between them, but it also functions as a symbolic promise: the old man will teach Frank all that he knows, despite not being Indigenous himself.
