George

George Stoynovich is a 20 year old young man who dropped out of school when he was 16 years old. His family is an immigrant family, probably from Poland. He lives with his father and his older sister.
-
The writer describes the environment in which George grew up. He grew up in a small apartment with his father and Sophie, his sister, George’s mother died when he was a child . George is described as lazy, he does not read any books, except for the magazines, that Sophie brings from work and does not do anything useful with his life.
-
During the day, George did not go outside the apartment because he felt that people do not respect him. He went outside in the evenings to a park, the only place where he let himself dream about a better life. One evening during his walk to the park, he met Mr. Cattanzara and told him that he was reading books to improve his education, but he wasn't really reading any.Mr. Cattanzara told this to the people in the neighborhood and they started to respect George. From that point, George was fearful that people would find out the truth and stop respecting him.
-
In my opinion, George made a mistake when he told Mr. Cattanzara that he was reading books when he was not, because he took the risk that someone would discover the truth. I hope that George will have a better life and that he will finish reading all the books that he has chosen.
This is better.
