AtD, Lake and overcoming retribution?

[Mark Kohut]

Lake. virtually disowned by dad, with no attempt to understand, no second chance, after a rebellious absquatulation. 
So, she accepts her rejection...and marries one of her dad's killers and fucks them both. 
Dad was 'dead' to her AND what a rejection back, eh?  Mirrored 'revenge' against her dad? 
Yet unlike her brothers, she is not visited by her dad's ghost.
 
Could fucking his killers be some kind of crazy metaphor for..............forgiveness?; forgiveness as forgetting? 
Way to overcome the endless cycle of retribution?
 
 
In sections after she has accepted her dad's death, this notion is actually expressed by her friend, the Sheriff's wife,,
as is the notion that she may have coupled with Deuce and Sloat and married Deuce to join with her dad's killer(s),
 
Is Lake, with Cyprian,  the largest-souled woman in the book? (Have some stuff on soul still brewing, still distilling)
