Question

In your opinion, was the woman in 'The Luncheon' considerate or self-centered ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

the women was self centred because without knowing the financial condition of the writer she invited him in a expensive hotel like Foyot's. She ordered all expensive dishes and did not even pay a penny. She kept saying the same sentence over and over that she does have anything for luncheon.

Answer 2

Answer:

From the story, it can be concluded that the lady was self-centred. This is because before starting with the luncheon, she said that she never eat anything for luncheon. However, later, she ordered the most expensive items on the menu – all the while saying that she never eat more than one thing for lunch. Moreover, she didn’t even offer those dishes which she ordered for herself to the narrator which shows that she was selfish. Moreover, the way she spoke in a rude manner about the narrator’s choice to eat mutton chop proved that she was self-centred.
