Susanne Langer is the grandmother of the children that the narrator babysits at the beach one summer. Years earlier, she sits on the beach daily while working to complete her distinction between discursive and non-discursive symbols. The narrator is attracted to this image though she admits that it must have been hard on Langer's children.
