Walter, Devlin, and Gabrielle are all isolated at the beginning. How does their unlikely friendship transform each of them?
Each of them are able to move forward in their own ways. I think all three of them are able to find personal strength, healing, and meaning in their own ways.
All three of them have had problems with relationships. Now they have found each other and are working hard to find out the story of the violin. They all have this in common and are working together and becoming close.
I think the three were very isolated and lived such sad lives. The violin awaken something in each of them. The music, the quest to find the owner, and the fact that they were being chased by some “gang’“ didn’tmake them so afraid they wanted to quit or hid, but find out more! Life got more interesting!
I think their friendship does bring strength, growth, and happiness to each of them. It gives them not only something in common, but a developing bond with one another’s lives due to their contact with the violin.
I believe all three characters have chosen isolation rather than being hurt. Opening up and allowing others in is difficult, but through their efforts to identify the origin of the violin they realize how human connections have enriched their lives.
I loved that they formed a special, yet unconventional friendship. It shows that you can find someone who you connect with in unique situations. You can be transformed by interacting with people who aren’t exactly like you.
I feel like working together and depending on each other brought their walls down, and they realized it was good thing to have other people in your life who care for you and you can care for them.
