As the text progresses, the person of Lucia becomes more obscure, lost in the gazes of those who surround her and use her as a mirror for their beliefs. What happens when a dancer ceases to dance?
"In the same way that her father regarded his work as a child, she, as we have seen, regarded it as a rival sibling who nearly always won" (437).
