The Narrator’s Wife
Character Analysis
Most of what is known about the narrator’s wife comes from the narrator’s interior monologue, so it reflects his somewhat warped notions of her and her life. She was married previously to a military man and became so lonely in that relationship that she attempted to commit suicide. The attempt was unsuccessful and she soon divorced her first husband. She later met and married the narrator, whom she seems to love, although she is often frustrated by his entrenched cynicism and insensitivity. Through all of this, she has maintained a friendship with Robert, the blind social worker for whom she worked one summer in Seattle. Exchanging audio tapes with Robert and writing poetry are, according to the narrator, her two major hobbies. There is a notable difference between the tenor of her relationship with Robert and her relationship with her husband. With Robert, she does her utmost to be accommodating and seems to genuinely enjoy his presence. With her husband, however, the narrator’s wife is standoffish and sometimes even prickly. It seems that the narrator’s inability to understand his wife’s values and emotions leads to strain in their relationship, whereas the narrator’s wife feels understood by Robert, who is a good friend and a careful listener.

Cathedral Quotes
But she and the blind man had kept in touch. They made tapes and mailed them back and forth. I wasn’t enthusiastic about his visit. He was no one I knew. And his being blind bothered me. My idea of blindness came from the movies. In the movies, the blind moved slowly and never laughed. Sometimes they were led by seeing eye dogs. A blind man in my house was not something I looked forward to.
