McTeague

Description

Carefully read the first two chapters of McTeague. 1. What are your first impressions of McTeague when we are introduced to him in the car conductor’s coffee joint? What can you infer about McTeague from the type of food he eats and his daily routine? 2. Why does McTeague react so strongly to meeting Trina Sieppe? What do their interactions tell us about the gender dynamic and social structure at the outset of the novel?
