The Rocking Horse Winner
By DH Lawrence

Who was responsible for Paul's Death?
I feel that Paul, his Uncle,Oscar Cresswell,his mother and Bassett were responsible for Paul's death.
Paul was respondsible as he became obssessed with betting on horses and thinking about luck.He died due to the brain fever caused by his obssession. He thought only about winning and being right on the horses he had bet on.

Oscar Cresswell:
He was responsible as he not only didn't helped to stop Paul from betting, he also helped Paul bet. Furthermore, he joined Paul as his "Partner".He also gave money to Paul and helped Paul bet.

Paul's Mother:
She talked to paul about luck at first. That caused Paul to believe that there was luck,made him think he was lucky which caused him to want to get even more money.She also talked about herself being poor and unlucky and Paul wanted to help her feel better and so ended up becoming more obssessed with betting.

Bessett:
He not only didn't dissuade Paul from betting,joining Paul as a "Partner" and also helping Paul to bet.

Hence, I concludee that the reason Paul died was because he was obssessed with betting and he became obssessed due to:himself,his ubcle,his mother and Besset.
