What They Live for

There is a world that is supposed to be chiefly swayed by hunger and by love. However, Mrs. Packletide seemed not belong to the normal world. The dislike of Loona Bimbeton led her whole life. Not only her, but also people around Mrs. Packletide lived for vanity. They always want to stay within people’s concern. All people of their class seemed regard vanity as a great part of their lives.

Let’s start form Mrs. Packletide, the protagonist of the passage. The reason why she disliked Loona is that Loona is just a person who shared people’s attention from Packletide glory. To get the concern and keep it, Mrs. Packletide had the intention that she should shoot a tiger just to fight against the fact that Loona’s eleven miles in a aeroplane: after got the tiger, she arranged a lunch and gave Loona Bimberton the tiger-claw brooch: at last Mrs. Packletide wanted her paid, Miss Mebbin, to keep the secret of the tiger’ s death, so she paid for the lie. Obviously, she did not be chiefly swayed by anything but the peacockery.

How about Loona Bimberton? She actually got a honor in a short time. But thereon a tiger-claw brooch given by Mrs. Packletide with a forced vanish came to Loona. Facing the special brooch, how ever she was angry, Loona had to send her letter of thanks for the gift of a tiger-claw brooch that was a modle of repressed emotions because of

her own vanity.

And Clovis? He was a representation of all audiences—those people who envied Mrs. Pckletide saying fulsome complimentsand trying to find a point so that they could laugh at the heroine before a second. They were ambivalent. They were longing for vain glory despising those people who made themselves talked about.

Louisa Mebbin, a better daughter than Eugenie Grandet to old Grandet. She and the neighboring villagers are at least honest to the basic desire—money compared with others. It proved those worlds to some degrees which appeared at the beginning, “In a world that is supposed to be chiefly swayed by hunger and by love.” They were like real human more than others.

From what I have said above, the author created a world that there were contorted upper classes loyal to their vanity and a excessively honest lower classes to their material desire in his words. It may refract the real world of our author.
