We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson
Originally written 12.12.2016
So far, I have read up to page 50, or right before chapter 4 begins. This is just to get my cluttered thoughts down on a comprehensible, tangible document.
So far:
CHARACTERS, AND MY FEELINGS ABOUT THEM
The Blackwood house: Seems like an ancient and slightly intimidating, fancy, comes-from-another-century kind of house. Slightly House of Usher-esque, minus the overwhelming dread you feel when you see/read about it.
Katherine/Merricat: I… I dunno. I feel like she’s somehow going to turn out to be some kind of sick murderer or cannibal or some shit, I really don’t know, but for now, really likeable. Either she is a genuinely “good” person, or she is one of those unreliable narrators.
Constance: For now, gives the impression of being those quiet, naïve shut-ins. Seeing as she is lonely and tells her sister (Merricat) that she wants to go outside, we can only assume she hasn’t ever been outside, which is disturbing in itself. Why? It mentions her being scared- why is Merricat allowed outside, made to endure the jeers and taunts of the townspeople, but not her? Maybe Uncle Julian keeps her inside on purpose? It is mentioned that he obviously favors Constance more (only lets her in his room, makes her attend to his needs, etc.), so maybe he forces Merricat to get the groceries and whatnot? 살짝 셔틀? ㅋㅋ For now, not much of my sympathy goes to her. She also seems slightly apathetic, doing whatever Julian tells her to do.
Uncle Julian: Creeps me out. So many questions. Does he force Constance to stay inside? Is he actually kind of “eccentric” and mentally disturbed? Does he relish telling the story of Constance’s “murder” story? If so, why? Does he actually have hallucinations? Does he even miss his dead family, who were poisoned by the arsenic berries?
Townspeople: I hate them. But I wanna know why they are such assholes.
BIQ QUESTIONS I HAVE SO FAR
Did Constance actually commit the murder? And if not at all/ was acquitted, why does Julian delight in telling the story, like when he retells it to Mrs. Wright? How can he “recall” it in such detail (Example: around pg 45-end of chapter 3)?
Why do the townspeople hate the Blackwoods so much? Because GOD I hate them. But why are they such assholes to the Blackwoods? Because they feel inferior to them? It also mentions Merricat’s mother being born in one of the town’s houses; does that have to do with anything?
Why is Constance prevented from going to town? Who-or what- is preventing her? Has she ever been to the town? Is Merricat disturbed when Constance says she will one day go to town because she fears for her sister’s safety, or is it because of something else? Is Uncle Julian actually a controlling monster, and doesn’t let her go outside? To quote my earlier words-‘why is Merricat allowed outside, made to endure the jeers and taunts of the townspeople, but not her? Maybe Uncle Julian keeps her inside on purpose? It is mentioned that he obviously favors Constance more (only lets her in his room, makes her attend to his needs, etc.), so maybe he forces Merricat to get the groceries and whatnot [instead of Constance]? 살짝 셔틀?’
Uncle Julian????? That’s it- that’s the question. I know it’s way too early to answer this question, but he really confuses me. What does he want? What does he do? Why does he trust Constance more when she was accused of murder (and according to him, she actually did murder them), and not Merricat? Why does he like telling people about the murder? Is he actually a loving, lonely uncle type, or does he turn out to be a control freak who abuses Merricat and Constance?

On the whole of a dull, dark and gloomy evening, where the clouds hung oppressively below the heavens, I happened to be passing by, on horseback, by the dreary tract of land known to locals as the House of Usher.
