A Separate Peace Ch. 12

QUOTE
"Then these separate sounds collided into the general tumult of his body falling clumsily down the white marble stairs."

DESCRIPTION OF QUOTE
Brinker is undoubtably the biggest ass on the planet at this point in the story. In their heads, everyone knows the truth about Gene; He jousted the limb so that Finny would fall out of the tree. There is no reason for him to gather everyone together and exploit this in front of Finny, who most likely cannot take anymore pain at this point. Now that Finny has fallen down the stairs again Brinker can be blamed much like he was putting all of the blame on Gene.

QUESTION
Is Finny going to be paralyzed for life?
