One of the things about Jonas... when you were answering questions about what motivates him, and that being art - I totally agree. And I always imagined that with his abuse as a child, he was turning glass from a dangerous, physically hurtful thing, into a beautiful work of art! He wasn't going to let glass be a negative in his life, as it had been used against him. Rather, he saw what glass really could be used for and gave it a whole new life meaning.
What a great review! I'm rereading Pilgrim Glass right now, such a wonderful story... :)))

Denise, I freaking love your interpretation. To be completely honest, I had never made that (conscious) connection before. I love this, so much.
