A lot of young Western girls have their first “love” affairs with horses, which can be interpreted in a Freudian way considering the passion frequently flares up in the years right before and during puberty. I myself loved horses between the ages of 10 and 14 despite the fact that riding them scared me and I was always frustrated at their lack of affection toward people unlike cats or dogs. I don’t usually talk much about individual pages, preferring to let readers interpret each page, but it only dawned on me later that Brina’s assertion of self and a new act separate from Zaire, whom she realized did not return her romantic feelings, involved horses (or in this case, horse-like critters.) Seems apropos.
