Answer 1

The theme of "A Few Notes for Orpheus" is don't look back.

In the myth, "Orpheus and Eurydice," Orpheus looked back and his wife returned to death in the Underworld. In the modern story, Jake didn't look back at his wife, thus giving her a chance to make a new life for herself. Jake didn't look back after he saved his daughter and we hope that he will live a more useful life. In the end, Jake's father didn't look back, but accepted his own selfishness.
