1、Deep thinking on Ticket, PleaseRecently, I have read a short novel called Ticket, please, written by David Herbert Lawrence. It is a story about a male and some females. It happens in World War I, when all able-bodied men go to the war front and those who are unfit for service stay in the country to
2、 do some work and also at that time women do some work. John Thomas is the hero and he is an amorous and irresponsible man. In the novel, it describes that “he flirt with the girl conductor in the morning, and walks out with them in the dark night, when they leave their tram-car at the depot. Of cou
3、rse, the girls quit the service frequently. Then he flirts and walks with the newcomer”. From it, we can easily know what kind of person he is. Though he is not a good man, he is attractive. Even Annie, a Tartar is attracted by him in the end. At first Annie is interested in him and Keep him at arms
4、 length deliberately. But after his cunning pursuit for her, she falls in love with him. However, when she wants to take an intelligent interest in him, he just wants to remain a nocturnal presence, and decided to leave her. Feeling so sad and being hurt, she determines to have her own back. She uni
5、tes with other girls whom he has hurts. They use tricks to keep him in a waiting room and beat him fiercely. They ask him to choose only one girl. And of course, he revolts them like crazy. At last, he chooses Annie, with strange and disparaging voice. In the end of this story, because those girls c
6、ant do anything with him except beating him, they have no alternative choice but letting him go.On the surface, this is only a story about a man who cheats and plays with womens feelings. However, on a deeper level, combining the background at that time and the authors life experience, we can find m
7、any things below the surface, that is, sex and equal. Lawrence was born to poor parents and his all life was in the great social and political upheavals. Also, he experienced the First World War. His many novels have a melancholy tone, and many of them are about sex. This novel is also about sex and
8、, whats more, about equality. John Thomas, the inspector, to some extent is the representative of males. And those conductors, including Annie, are the representative of females. On one hand, from this story, we can see males have the absolute advantage. Though those girls are hurt by John and they
9、want to revenge him, they have to give in in the end. I think those sentences are very well written: “But while they can vilify him, disrobe him, pummel him, they cannot impose the final humiliation and rape him.” “The girls, especially Annie, are forced to recognize the limits of their power. The s
10、ingle source of the defeat is their failure to be a man.”(copy from the book) What a deep going analysis! I am really impresses by the two sentences. Indeed, for a long time before, females had few rights and were submissive to males. Females could only stay at home, attending their husband and thei
11、r children. Males were the central person in families who could work outside and had a higher social status. Of course, on the other hand, this novel reflect females struggle for their right and own happiness. In the story, there are a group of “fearless young hussies” and as far as I am concerned t
12、hey represent those females who fight for themselves. Combining the background of that time, we know that during the First World War, because of the heavy fighting a large number of British men have to leave their original jobs and enter the war. In order to maintain the normal life and ensure socia
13、l functions normally, women shoulder the responsibility of their own life, their family and the social stability. They go out of home space, enter into the social sphere and have a job. At that time, womens social status improved and some pioneers make a bid for the females right and t accelerate th
14、e feminist movement. In my opinion, Annie is the miniature of those pioneers. She is different from other girls. At first she keeps distance with John Thomas deliberately and when hurt by John, she try to get her dignity back and want to let him to his revenge. Though she fails in the end, at least
15、she has fought for herself. Whats more, there is something I want to say about the ending. We know the story is ended with the mans victory. In my point of view, the ending is also a mirror to the social society. By finding information from the internet, I know that though in the First World War fem
16、ales social statues had improved a little. But just after the war ended, females statues decreased again, just like before the war. And the ending indicates that” no matter how strengthened by the freedom brought by the First World War, women can never be the equals of men” (copy from the book)Anyway, I like this novel. I like what it expresses under the surface story. By reading it, I have a better understanding on the fight of sex, on the relationship between the First World
