Rhetorical Question

Frances begins to figure out that Robert Cohn is not going to be sticking around for much longer. She knows that it probably won't work out between them and they won't get married. She is upset at Cohn. She begins to get mad at him. She rages on for almost two pages in the book. I was rooting for her (I think Cohn is annoying-it might be because Jake thinks he is too). She just kept going on and on talking and then asking a question like, "Aren't you, Robert?" or "Didn't you, Robert?" (page 57). She doesn't even stop talking to see if Robert would even mumble a response. Cohn never stood up for himself. Frances did not expect a response from Cohn because she did not ask the questions to receive one. She was mad and she asks to questions to torment him.
