In James Joyce story ” Araby” narrator is the young boy who deeply
falls in love with a Nun. Love is an experience that everyone one once to have in their
life. Love does not knock at the door but it comes in unknowingly in our life with joy and
happiness. It makes life interesting and everything around us looks beautiful. But if the
love remains in the heart silently than it becomes a pain. This whole story is about the
narrators one sided love and his suffering.
We know that first love cannot be forgotten and when it remains
unexpressed than it become more painful. The narrator who is in love with the nun was
not able to express his love towards her. May be he was afraid of telling her because she
was a nun or may be he was not strong enough. Every morning he used to follow her but
couldnt speak a word. Love makes people do thing that he or she wouldnt normally do.
The narrator was so crazy about her that he could see her image ” even in places the most
hostile to romance”(637). He suddenly took her name in his prayer and his “eyes were
often full of tears” (637) because of fear that he may not able tell his feeling in future.
If a person is happy than he finds the world around him is very
beautiful
