What is reveled about Roger by his actions in this chapter Why does he stop short of actually hitting Henry with the stones in chapter 4?

Answer 1

Roger's actions in Chapter 4 reveal his enjoyment of causing harm to others and his latent aggressive tendencies. He stops short of actually hitting Henry with the stones because he still abides by societal rules and norms that prevent him from fully embracing his violent impulses. This shows that Roger still has some level of control over his actions and behavior, despite his inner desires.
