Excerpt One: “Digging” by Seamus Heaney (Poetry) Between my finger and my thumb The squat pen rests; snug as a gun. Under my window, a clean rasping sound When the spade sinks into gravelly ground: My father, digging. I look down Till his straining rump among the flowerbeds Bends low, comes up twenty years away Stooping in rhythm through potato drills Where he was digging. The coarse boot nestled on the lug, the shaft Against the inside knee was levered firmly.He rooted out tall tops, buried the bright edge deepTo scatter new potatoes that we picked,Loving their cool hardness in our hands. By God, the old man could handle a spade. Just like his old man. My grandfather cut more turf in a dayThan any other man on Toner’s bog.Once I carried him milk in a bottleCorked sloppily with paper. He straightened upTo drink it, then fell to right awayNicking and slicing neatly, heaving sodsOver his shoulder, going down and downFor the good turf. Digging. The cold smell of potato mould, the squelch and slapOf soggy peat, the curt cuts of an edgeThrough living roots awaken in my head.But I’ve no spade to follow men like them. Between my finger and my thumbThe squat pen rests.I’ll dig with it. Excerpt Two: a scene from All My Sons by Arthur Miller (Drama)Context: Joe and Kate are a married couple and have two sons, Larry and Chris. Larry goes off to war and never returned. Years later, Kate—the mother, still believes him to be alive, but Chris suspects that Larry is dead, and Joe knows that Larry will not come back. While Larry was away, Chris fell in love with their neighbor and Larry's previous sweetheart, Annie, and now wants to ask for her hand in marriage. Chris: All right, all right, listen to me. {slight pause. Joe sits on settee} You know why I asked Annie here, don't you? Joe: {he knows, but} Why? Chris: You know. Joe: Well, I got an idea, but... What's the story? Chris: I'm going to ask her to marry me. {slight pause. Joe nods} Joe: Well, that's only your business, Chris. Chris: You know it's not only my business. Joe: What do you want me to do? You're old enough to know your own mind. Chris: {asking, annoyed} Then it's all right, I'll go ahead with it? Joe: Well, you want to be sure Kate isn't going to… Chris: Then it isn't just my business. Joe: I'm just sayin' … Chris: Sometimes you infuriate me, you know that? Isn't it your business, too, if I tell this to Kate and she throws a fit about it? You have such a talent for ignoring things. Joe: I ignore what I gotta ignore. The girl is Larry's girl. Chris: She's not Larry's girl. Joe: From Kate's point of view he is not dead and you have no right to take his girl. {slight pause} Now you can go on from there if you know where to go, but I'm tellin' you I don't know where to go. See? I don't know. Now what can I do for you? Chris: I don't know why it is, but every time I reach out for something I want, I have to pull back because other people will suffer. My whole bloody life, time after time after time. Joe: You're a considerate fella, there's nothing wrong in that. Chris: To hell with that. Joe: Did you ask Annie yet? Chris: I wanted to get this settled first. Joe: How do you know she'll marry you? Maybe she feels the same way Kate does? Chris: Well, if she does, then that's the end of it. From her letters I think she's forgotten him. I'll find out. And then we'll thrash it out with Kate? Right? Dad, don't avoid me. Joe: The trouble is, you don't see enough women. You never did. Chris: So what? I'm not fast with women. Joe: I don't see why it has to be Annie. Chris: Because it is. Joe: That's a good answer, but it don't answer anything. You haven't seen her since you went to war. It's been five years. Chris: I can't help it. I know her best. I was brought up next door to her. These years when I think of someone for my wife, I think of Annie. What do you want, a diagram? Joe: I don't want a diagram... I...I'm... She thinks he's coming back Chris. You marry that girl and you're pronouncing him dead. Now what's going to happen to Kate? Do you know? I don't. {pause} Chris: All right, then, Dad. Joe: {thinking Chris has retreated} Give it some more thought. Chris: I've given it three years of thought. I'd hoped that if I waited, Kate would forget Larry and then we'd have a regular wedding and everything would be happy. But if that can't happen here, then I'll have to get out. Joe: What the hell is this? Chris: I'll get out. I'll get married and live some place else. Maybe in New York. Joe: Are you crazy? Chris: I've been a good son too long, a good sucker. I'm through with it. Joe: You've got a business here. What the hell is this? Chris: The business! The business doesn't inspire me. Joe: Must you be inspired? Chris: Yes. I like it an hour a day. If I have to grub for money all day long at least in the evening I want it to be beautiful. I want a family, I want some kids, I want to build something that I can give myself to. Annie is in the middle of that. Now ... where do I find it? Joe: You mean... {goes to him} Tell me something, you mean you'd leave the business? Chris: Yes. On this I would. Joe: {after a pause} Well... you don't want to think like that. Chris: Then help me stay here.
