Character Comparisons

Throughout the book Nervous Conditions many of the characters have changed. Whether changing personalities,views, or traditions of things almost all characters have grown in some way after deling with some sort of situation. I think the two best examples of this are Nyasha and Tambu. At the beginning of the book Tambu had always just really accepted the way things were, she was never always agreeing with what was being done but she never usually interjected. She had wanted an education more than anything and had never  really be so fond of Nyasha. Nyasha at the beginning of the book was the exact opposite. She was very out spoken, outgoing, and very rebellious. 

   When we look at our characters at the end of the book they have both changed for better and for worse. Nyasha has gone from being rebellious and from being so outgoing to being weak, unhealthy and obsessed with studying. She is so obsessed with studying and she is so unhealthy form her diet that she has a break down and has to be placed in a clinic. Tambu on the other hand has changed for the better. She is much more of her own person after having so much education and having so many new and different experiences.
