Discuss The Model’s Character From The Point Of View Of The Reader And The Narrator. In Carol Ann Duffy’s poem, “Standing Female Nude”, the model’s character can be discussed by the reader and these views may contrast the views of the narrator, who is the model. I will begin by looking at the narrator’s opinion of herself before considering my own views of the character. The narrator shows that the model …

…model thinks very highly of herself yet the reader might believe she is very pretentious. As a result we almost pity the model as we learn that she is not all she claims. For instance, she claims the Queen gazes on her shape and says magnificent but we notice that her ‘breasts hang slightly low’, suggesting she’s getting old and she is also getting thin, suggesting she is not making much money ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
