This reflects that Dave and his father do not have a close relationship since Dave doesn't feel that his father would listen to him and consider his request.
<em>"The Garden of Forking Paths"</em> is a short story witten by the Argentine writer and poet Jorge Luis Borges. It was published in 1948.
In this short story, Borges refers to various unfinished works of literature to convey the idea of the limits of knowledge. He conveys the idea that human capabilities and knowledge are very limited and that there exists a desire to exceed that limit.
As usual in life, motives can be complicated. The theme of Ivan Illych marrying this woman because of her money and her social position is one possibility that he discusses (she comes from a "good" family and has some property).
