I really like how this story pointed our right away how the world has certian views on people. Right away Mr. Kapasi thought that the Das' where Indian and should speak the langue, but they were dressed like "tourists" It is amazing how you tell where someone is from just by the way they are dressed.
I'm not sure if I have figured out why is was so intruged by Mrs. Das after she thought his job as an interpeter was romantic. I am thinking that he was just so happy that someone even payed attention to him. It seems that he was not in a very strong relationship, especillay after his son died. He didn't even really talk to his wife anymore.
Mrs. Das was drawn to him right away after she heard what his job was. Why is it that she thinks that he interpets that he is full of some sort of wisdom to help her with her guilt. I do believe that Mr. Kapasi was right asking her if it was guilt. I think she may have realized that maybe he was right and that is why he was upset. I also think that both Mr. and Mrs. Das must not be happy. The both seemed to be perfectly ok with bickering infront of the children.
Finally, when Mr. Kapasi saves the boy from the monkeys, they don't as much thank him. Why? Don't they realize that it was their actions that led to the monkey attack?
