"Phoebe and her Companion" is not a classic story, it is no stage play, no poem. The conversation is in the foreground, the actions appear to be incidental, the thoughts and talks carry on through the text. The conversations between Phoebe and her companion are based on Bible passages in which God is to be recognized in his emotionality. In the text, Phoebe hears God, whom she only knows as her companion, talking about his emotions from the first person perspective. Someone who is nearly consumed by his anger, who is low-spirited because of disappointment and sings while being in love.
