Why does the narrator mention feathers? in a servant to servants

to emphasize how free the camper is to do as he pleases

The narrator mentions the feathers to imply that the camper is engaged in a trivial activity

Explanation:

In "A Servant to Servants" by Robert Frost, the narrator is a woman who suffers of mental illness and loneliness even though she has people around and she talks about this camper that is out on the fields in her husband's land and how he let himself go with banal things since it seems there's no much more there

Those lines are:

Our Willoughby! How did you hear of it?

I expect, though, everyone's heard of it.

In a book about ferns? Listen to that!

You let things more like feathers regulate

Your going and coming. And you like it here?

answer: b. grete might have remained as shy and immature as she was at the beginning of the story.

one of the most interesting characteristics of gregor's metamorphosis is that, although he is the only character who has physically changed, it is this same change which triggered a transformation in the rest of his family.

by taking care of gregor, grete has become stronger and more confident. she has found a life outside of the house, and has become more independent and self-sufficient. the novel implies that the trigger for the change is gregor's own transformation, and that without it, grete was likely to remain as shy and immature as she was at the beginning of the book.
