Commentary on Miss Brill

Miss Brill is a shortstory by Katherine Mansfield seen from a limited omniscient view. The main character and host character for the narrator is Miss Brill, an English teacher who lives in a country with a french speaking population. The observations on which I base these conclutions are the fact that Miss Brill thinks about her english students and visits the Jardins Publicues, french for public park. The first impression I got of miss Brill …

…in literature. This suggests that it's a subject authors find important. I don't know when "Miss Brill" was written, but there is critique against the social class system in the shortstory. This is most likely the motive the author had to write the shortstory. Miss Brill's subconsiousness however adds a twist to the story. It's not only the upper class that hurts Miss Brill, when she wont let out her own feelings she hurts herself.
