Adventure

In the Adventure the girl Alice Hindman is sixteen years old and has a affair with a young name Ned Currie. Alice Hindman was really pretty and she knew it. I think this story shows how our generation is now and how everything goes. Alice’s falls in love with Ned but Ned wants to leave the town and go to the big city. Alice wants to follow Ned to the big city but Ned doesn’t want her to leave her family and doesn’t want her out in the big city. Ned leaves and Alice writes letters to him and he would response back. Their love lasted for about a year but Ned’s letters went from day to day to weeks and then to months. Alice thought didn’t really believe that Ned doesn’t love her no more and that he would come back for her. This never happen Alice lives the rest of the live like this and just waits for Ned until he comes back. She just works and tries to save up money, so she can go to the big city and fins him, but that fails to. I believe this is a show of Realism and Romanticism because this is how it is but the main character wants something else. The story is mostly though about Realism and how it really happens to people.

  1. Cadet Ma gives a good summary about the story. He brings all the main points and actions that happened. The detailed explanation of the action makes us visualize and imagine that we are there and let us live those moments in which Alice and Ned are giving their love. At the same time we see how young she was and how she felt in love with this older guy that was been over protective and selfish as for when he leaves for the big city and does not want her to go with him. At the end Ned acted like a jerk and didn’t treat her right.
