COMPARE EILIS’ CHARACTER BEFORE AND AFTER AMERICA Glamorous and conscious of her looks Plain and not interested in her looks

EILIS HAS REPLACED ROSE. DISCUSS THIS USING THE PEE CHAIN. Mother treats her the way she did Rose Glamorous Davis’s Office Social life

EILIS HAS REPLACED ROSE. DISCUSS THIS USING THE PEE CHAIN. Eilis has slotted into her sister Rose’s life with ease, even replacing her at work. I know this because Eilis’ mother tells her, ‘the big news is that Davis’s office sent up for you.’ The writer does this to suggest… That Eilis has changed from the girl who couldn’t get a job to someone that is in demand. She has matured into a young woman and taken on her sister’s role.
