what plan did the girls make so that suzanne could get what she wanted fur by saki
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
The theme of this story is betrayal and deception: Eleanor is a false friend who uses her friend Suzanne's confidences to stab her in the back.
Eleanor pretends to be Suzanne's friend but treats her maliciously. Eleanor learns that Suzanne's rich relative is coming to town and that Suzanne, who doesn't have much money, would love for him to give her some fox furs for her birthday.
Eleanor, whose birthday is in March, presumably months away, lies to the cousin and says her birthday is tomorrow when she and Suzanne get separated in a crowded department store, and Eleanor is left alone with the cousin. Eleanor tells him a sob story about wanting furs but having no money and no relatives with money who will remember her. She manipulates the cousin into buying her furs and getting Suzanne a fan, which she knows Suzanne does not want.
Eleanor apparently acts out of spite and malice: there's no evidence that she wants furs. She simply appears to hope to thwart Suzanne in her desires and make her jealous. There was no reason but cattiness for Eleanor to insist on Suzanne wanting a fan. The story warns us to be careful who we trust and confide in. Seeming friends can be malicious enemies.
Answer:
The themes of selfishness, appearance, friendship, bitterness, kindness, and revenge are explored in Saki's Fur. When Suzanne tells Eleanor about her birthday, it appears that she is only thinking about herself.
She knows Bertram is a wealthy man, so she is looking for an expensive gift, a fur. Suzanne doesn't care that Bertram is only a distant cousin; what matters is that she gets a fur.
Suzanne's first and only priority is this. Something that becomes clear to the reader when Eleanor and Suzanne decide to 'bump' into Bertram in order to bring him into Goliath and Mastodon's fur department. Suzanne is only concerned with herself throughout the story.
Eleanor is disturbed when Suzanne refuses to attend a bridge game so that she can speak to Harry. If anything, this is the spark that ignites Eleanor's desire for vengeance against Suzanne.
Something she accomplishes when Bertram buys her the fur and Suzanne the fan.
