"And inwardly raged at this portion of his being that so frequently rendered him helpless in the face of someone’s plea; that he could not control; that lay coiled within him like a length of rope, always ready to fling itself out to rescue at the call of someone else’s need. It gave him no peace. Not even in sleep.”

karras continues to be a really interesting character, im also slowly warming up to kinderman's role in the novel as well!
i also feel chris' societal defiance of the 70s (divorced,working woman) creates a deuteragonist with karras, as they both subvert expectations of them by society, or rather; the success they once experienced (chris a movie star, karras once a boxer) that led them to be people society dismisses
