3. Bluebeard serves as a mirrored image to Abel because the horse is of a size big enough for Abel and the horse can handle the weight. I feel that since Abel enjoys carrying childen it reflects the horse that carries Abel. A horse symbolizes power, nobility, strength, etc. This could be said of Abel as well.

The Ogre - Day 3
2. Animals definitely play a large role in this novel. Before Rominten Abel is seen taking care of the pigeons. He only desires them and wants to touch them. After they are killed he feels he is the only one to ingest them. He doesn't want them to die. In Rominten he is told to kill the animals which he finds to be cruel. The sight of dead animals is an unpleasant situation for Abel. I think that the hunt of animals could symbolize the hunt for the Jews during the Holocaust.
