Environment In The Pedestrian, And Miss Brill
In many of the works we have read thus far, a character is isolated or alienated from or in conflict with his or her culture and/or environment. Two prime examples of this dilemma include Leonard Mead in “The Pedestrian,” and Miss Brill in “Miss Brill.” Labeled as outcasts whether willingly or unwillingly, the main characters struggle to identify with their current environment. Throughout these short stories it is evident they become more and more detached from their surroundings.
Throughout Ray Bradbury’s “The Pedestrian” the main character Leonard Mead is at odds with the brain-dead society he lives in. Everyone in society is the same in how they live their lives; they go to work during the day, stay inside and sit in front of the television
