  3. Setting • Inner City

  4. Summary • Bryon sees Cathy • Mark and Bryon meet Mike and learn his story • Mark gets hurt in a fight/ Bryon and Cathy’s first date • Charlie is killed • M&M runs away

  5. Favorite Part “Outside I spotted M&M at the corner. There were three guys trailing him. When you see something like that around here you know right away somebody is about to get jumped…. The whole side of M&M’s face was bruised, but he gave us one of his rare, wistful grins. ‘Thanks you guys’” (Hinton 21-22).

  6. Bryon’s Culture • At Home: • Loving • Trusting • Poor • Lack of Money • Outside Home: • Rough • Violent • Inner City

  7. Bryon’s Identity • Beginning of the Novel: • Always With Mark • Heartbreaker • Pool Hustler • Bad Boy • “face like a St. Bernard puppy” • End of the Novel: • Grows apart from Mark • Mellows • Thinks more of morals and past behavior • Thinks “What if….”

  8. Bryon’s Values • His friendship with Mark • His relationship with Cathy • M&M’s well being • Family (his Mom) • The Little Money his family brings in

  9. Most relevant Lesson “ ‘Bryon, you got even with Mark for Cathy, then you got even with Cathy for Mark. When are you going to stop getting even with yourself?’ “ (Hinton 156).

  10. Recommendation • Despite the melancholy ending, I really enjoyed That Was Then, This is Now and would recommend it to any classmate looking for a good book.

  11. Not Everything in life is fair…. • But, if one wallows in the past, they throw their future away as well.
