People act in different ways due to their nature. In the short story “Miss Brill,” written by Katherine Mansfield, Miss Brill has a unique way of presenting herself. One trait she possesses is being very judgmental. She likes to intrude on peoples’ conversations and judge how these people should act. But in reality, she’s the one who should be looked at. Miss Brill doesn’t have any friends and lives a life as a lonely, old woman. One other aspect of her nature is that she is very childish and immature. In the story, she goes home, almost crying, after she is insulted by the young couple. Miss Brill went to her house without her almond bread, acting like a child with a temper tantrum. But, she should act more mature, since she’s an English teacher. Someone who is a teacher normally is a role model for the students they teach, but Miss Brill wouldn’t be the right role model for the children. Miss Brill is a character with a very interesting temperament and nature.
