Eveline

This story is about a girl who does not fulfill her dreams when she is finally given the chance due to an inexplicable feeling that possesses her.
1. Where is Eveline going to ship off to?
2. What is the parallelism of the line "And all the seas of the world tumbled about in her heart."?
3. Why do you think Eveline looks passively at Frank in the end of the story?
I could totally relate to Eveline in this story. At the end, when Joyce describes her as looking passively at Frank, I think Eveline is already over him. I don't think she ever let herself love him because she knew she could hurt herself. I also think that she has completely let go of him by the time he is on the ship calling to her. She knows she won't go. I think Eveline is a complex character. Joyce leaves little clues throughout the story to help the reader get to know Eveline. For example, he tells the reader that Frank loves Eveline but never Eveline loves Frank. That attention to detail changes Eveline's decision to not go at the end of the story.
