| − | | + | I thought it was interesting how she said that the girls who worked in the shops: "she knows far better what constitutes the life of the rich than the rich ever know of the life of the poor...of the woman she so often despises, even when longing the most to be one of them. She imitates where she can..."(bottom of page 294). This is further emphasizing the desire of lower-class women to be like the upper class, to strive for that 'perfect life.' It is a striking contrast that the girl hates the rich women, yet longs to be like them. -Kristina.S. |
