The author uses foreshadowing in Paul's physical characteristics and temperament which are so much like Mrs. Morel's. The bond between mother and son is an important one, and the developing stages are critical to note. With William's absence, Paul becomes Mrs. Morel's adored child and he begins to replace Morel in importance in Mrs. Morel's life.
