MEMORABLE PASSAGE


Mr. Jones, of the Manor Farm, had locked the hen-houses for the night but was too drunk to remember to shut the popholwes. With the ring of light from his lantern dancing form side to side he lurched across the yard, kicked off his boots at the back door, drew himself a last glass of beer from the barrel in the scullery and made his way up to bed, where Mrs. Jones was already snoring.


This is my favorite passage from the novel. This passage was very meaningful to me because I knew the feeling of wanting to go to bed very badly. Like you just want to go home, take off your shoes, and lie down on your bed and go to sleep. Also, this passage was very interesting because the author even included that he made mistakes. As you know well, people make a lot of mistakes especially when they are tired and exhausted.
