Zeitoun


            From what I’ve read so far Zeitoun come off as someone who is strong, wise, ambitious, kind, loving and a hard worker. I see his love for his wife, his kids and his community. Zeitoun grew up as a hard worker which he embodies from his father traits. Zeitoun is a hero because he helps family out every day by fixing any problems in their house that needs to be fixed. He goes above and beyond just to make sure that he’s jobs gets complete without any breaks, he’s everyone hero. Somehow, Zeitoun can come off as very stubborn but not so much as Creon. He knew that the storm Katrina was coming and his wife insisted that they leave home but Zeitoun did not want to leave. When Zeitoun and his wife would talk on the phone she would bring up the storm Katrina, Zeitoun would either change the subject of their conversation or just dismiss it completely. In the mindset of Zeitoun, he’s thinking how can he leave his home when there are so many things that need to be done and so much people depending on him. His stubbornness already got him in trouble with his wife. She had left him one time to go to Florida with the kids. Zeitoun didn’t believe she would actually leave but when he saw her packing the car with luggage’s and the kids already strap in he knew she was serious. Zeitoun decision off being stubborn and avoiding the warning can cost him his life and the life of his wife and kids.

  1. I agree that he is stubborn but not in such a bad way as Creon is. Excellent details in your post.
