Color Me Butterfly Quote

" They were relieved that the Prince of Darkness had, at long last, left their home" (Marlow 74). I picked this quote because it demonstrates an important changing point in the book. Everyone was relieved when Isaac finally left the household. No more abuse and no more fear. I also appreciate how the author capatilized Prince of Darkness in the quote. This emphasizes Isaac's evil. As soon as Isaac drove away, Eloise had to raise the kids on her own. Strain and relief overcomed her the moment she found out Isaac left. However, Isaacs disappearance from their life was an overall positive feeling.
