Description: Brinker is in some way a leader and is guy who follows the rules
Job: A student at Devon
Age: 17
Relationships: He is friends with most kids at Devon.
Symbolism:
I chose a Recruiter because Brinker tries to recruit Gene and Gene actually thinks about joining and Brinker seams to be convincing and but Gene ends up not doing it because he feels finny does not want him to.
Analysis: Brinker is a leader to some of the Boys at Devon. "almost everyone liked Brinker" (Knowles 87).He also though just keep trying to give Gene a bad time asking him if he pushed Finny out of the Tree and hurt him on purpose. "I can see you have real influence around here. This big room all to yourself." (Knowles 87) He is trying to say that he might be glad that Finny got hurt because now he has a whole room to himself.
Theme Tie-In: I think the theme for Brinker is war. Because in war you need a leader and ther are rules. Like Brinker he is a leader that will follow the rules. And also in war it isn't plesant and it could get mean and hard on you. Like how Brinker is on Gene about accusing him of making Finny Fall and break his leg and he does not stop bothering him.
