I Never Liked You - Main Characters

Main Characters

Chester "Chet" Brown
Brown's depiction of himself as an awkward, introverted teenager; he is emotionally withdrawn and finds refuge in drawing.
Gordon Brown
Chet's younger and more well-adjusted brother.
Mrs. Brown
(1923–76) Chet and Gordon's mother, who is suffering from schizophrenia and is eventually hospitalized and quickly ends up passing away. The story was originally called Fuck in reference to Brown's mother's hard stance against foul language.
The fact that his mother is schizophrenic is not made explicit in the book, but Brown talks about it in his cartoon essay My Mother was a Schizophrenic, in which he takes an anti-psychiatric stance.
Sky
a buxom dark haired girl whom Chet falls in love with, but with whom he can't bring himself to admit he likes. She connects with Chet and tries to develop a relationship, but he is unable to deal with his feelings and turns her away.
Connie
a popular, pretty blonde girl who lives across the street from Chet's house.
Carrie
Connie's younger sister who transparently has a crush on Chet and "develops a possessive attitude toward him", but whom Chester repeatedly tries to put off.

Famous quotes containing the words main and/or characters:

    In most books, the I, or first person, is omitted; in this it will be retained; that, in respect to egotism, is the main difference.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    What makes literature interesting is that it does not survive its translation. The characters in a novel are made out of the sentences. That’s what their substance is.
    Jonathan Miller (b. 1936)
