Nomination Notice - Friday
This is your last chance to boost yourself

Unaccountably upset the narrator says Mr Nilson turned abruptly into the house and opened his morning paper last paragraph The theme of the story is that many people lead a humdrum uneventful life but refuse to change their ways They are in a rut Galsworthy uses Mr Nilson as an example of such people
Nilson lives in an exclusive section of London fashionable Campden Hill and apparently makes plenty of as an investor in Londons financial districtknown to London residents as the City a term used in the first and seventh paragraphs of the story Thus he does not lack the means to lead a dynamic outgoing life What he lacks is the will to become more involved with the world around him Consider that he has lived next to Mr Tandrum for five years but never once spoke with him until the mysterious fragrance brings them together at the quince tree Oddly both men have mustaches both are about the same height both carry newspapers and both have dealings in the financial district These similarities tell the reader that there is nothing distinctive about them They are among the mass of men who lead lives of quiet complacency and ordinariness

They exchange friendly small talk about the tree and the song of a blackbird nearby then return to their homes When Nilson reaches the top step he experiences that same choking sweetness in his throat At that very moment he hears someone cough or sigh When he looks in the direction of the cough he sees Tandram looking out from his French dow at the Japanese quince

unaccountably upset last paragraph that his neighbor is so much like him Moments before he thought he was unique Morning like this and here I am the only person in the Square who has theto come out and paragraph In other words he thought he was the only person in the neighborhood who had the initiative to go outdoors and appreciate the spring day Then he sees Tandram At the end of the story Nilson goes back indoors and opens his newspaper Apparently he prefers his comfortable rut alsworthy develops his theme with concise descriptive language The details are spare but none of them is wasted Many words have more than one meaning For example Nilsons feeling of emptiness paragraph
describes a physical sensation in his chest while also suggesting that his life is empty Some words describe not only an object but also an aspect of Nilsons life For example Nilsons ivorybacked handglass paragraph suggests that he can afford luxuries

To emphasize how similar Nilson and Tandram areand therefore commonplace and boringGalsworthy says both of them are about the same height and have brown mustaches grey eyes and wellcoloured cheeks paragraph paragraph Both have newspapers clasped behind their backs and both live in houses with a French dow and scrolled iron steps When the two men part company Galsworthy writes It struck him Nilson suddenly that Mr Tandram looked a little foolish and as if he had seen himself he said I must be going in Good morning paragraph The key words here are as if he had seen himself The conversation they have is pleasant Nilson thinks Nice fellow this I rather like him paragraph Here is a
