Miss Brill

The persona in this short story is named Miss Brill and it talks about how Miss Brill goes out to the park on Sundays and enjoys a play that goes on. Miss Brill as the main persona talks about all the people she sees and how each one is unique in there own way and how she appreciates it. Miss Brill talks abut a fur coat that she has and i came to the conclusion that she only wears it when she goes out on Sundays. She expresses how happy it makes her feel when she wears it because it;s her thing to do and she enjoys it a lot. In the end she talks about how she hears someone crying and i came to the conclusion that it was here because at the park she comes accross these two lovers and how they cant say something in front of her and they start talking bad about her. She has a ritual that she does but she doesnt follow it through because she's hurt of what the two young lovers said about her. When she is at the park she realizes that all the people that show up are and including herself are part of the act because they show up and have a unique sense of style. I got the feeling that maybeshe wasnt going to go out on her Sunday outings because of what she heard from the two young lovers. In the end she talks about hhow she heard someone cry and i believe it was herself.
