How does the author use foreshadowing in Sometimes a Great Notion?

Chapter Two's prologue, essentially a reference to the way perspectives can and do change, functions on several levels. Firstly, it's a metaphoric representation of the attitudes held by both Lee and the town towards the Stamper family, and the way in which both look beyond their anger and resentment and see opportunities for revenge.

On another level, it represents and foreshadows Viv's eventual change in perspective, from believing that life with the Stampers is her only option to realizing the possibility of freedom and fulfillment in life outside the family.
