It's Raining in Mango Irony

It's Raining in Mango Irony

The irony of the Australian government

When Cornelius and his family arrived in Australia, they were shocked to learn about the government-supported racism against the native aboriginals. According to Cornelius, the government had the responsibility of protecting all the citizens equally. He decided to protest as a journalist to fight for the rights of Aboriginals, but he was not successful.

The satire of Reever

Reever is the son of Connie, but he lives an ambitious life. For instance, Reever makes up his mind to travel to the North to trace the footsteps of his ancestors. Ironically, Reever is not aware that he is headed to self-destruction. After Reever leaves, Connie is left mourning in agony for her son's wellbeing.

The satire of Will

Will is a satirical character because his sister is shocked to learn that he is leaving home for good. Interestingly, before departing from home to meet his creator in an unknown place, Will pays all his bills to ensure that his sister is not troubled when he is gone. Will is gay, and he realizes that society does not appreciate his gender orientation.

The irony of life

The text depicts life as sardonic and complex to comprehend. For instance, Will finds no purpose in life after realizing that his lover, a redneck from the North, is using him for amusement; he returns home to be consoled by Reever and Connie. Later, Will realizes that his life is meaningless, and he leaves with a gun in his truck. He uses the gun to meet his creator in an unknown place.
