اتمنى لو يقرأ الرجال هذه القصة و يخبروني هل يعتقدون دقة تجسيد شخصية الرجل فيها؟
<b><blockquote>" It occurred to him that he would not have minded her shutting up right then, and giving him what he wanted. He felt the possibility of making a joke, of defusing what had come between them, but couldn’t think of anything – and then the moment passed and she turned her head away. That was the problem with women falling out of love; the veil of romance fell away from their eyes, and they looked in and could read you."</blockquote></b>
تتحدث القصة عن علاقة بين رجل و امرأة تقترب من مرحلة الزواج لكنها سرعان ما تذبل ليس لأن شعلة الحب قد انطفأت بل لأن الرجل يحمل في جوفه تصورات يجهلها .
<b><blockquote>" as the hours passed she seemed to slowly forgive him, to soften, and the time between them grew sweet again, perhaps even a little sweeter than it had ever gone, that hurdle of their first argument having been crossed."</blockquote></b>
كاثل بطل القصة وهو الذي تتحرك معه عدسة السرد لكن المؤلفة لم تغفل عن دور سابين فعنوان القصة هو الوقت الذي اتخذت فيه قرارها ، وبراعة المؤلفة لا تظهر في حرصها على إيصال الحالة الشعورية في علاقة فيها تعقيد نفسي واضح خاصة من طرف الرجل بل تظهر في تقسيمها للقصة كأنها موجة بحر ما أن ترتفع حتى تهبط .
<b><blockquote>"‘You know what is at the heart of misogyny? When it comes down to
it?’
‘So I’m a misogynist now?’
‘It’s simply about not giving,’ she said. ‘Whether it’s believing you
should not give us the vote or not give help with the dishes – it’s all clitched onto the same wagon.’
‘Hitched,’ Cathal said.
‘What?’
‘It’s not “clitched”,’ he said. ‘It’s “hitched”.’
‘You see?’ she said. ‘Is not this just more of it? You knew exactly what I meant – but you cannot even give me this much.’
He had looked at her then and again saw something ugly about himself reflected back at him, in her gaze. "</blockquote></b>
حب الرجل للمرأة في هذه القصة نراه في الواقع ولا شك لكني اتمنى معرفة واقعية الشعور الذي يعتري الرجل فإنها قد صورته بشكل حزين فأصبح كاثل الجلاد و المجلود .
