对”The Man of Property“中”Soames“的评价

郑金力

Soames is a guardian of property, but also a gentleman with basic moral cultivation, he loves Irene, he also loves his money and property, he has the vanity of ordinary people, a beautiful woman at his side, this is the embodiment of his charm. When he knew that Irene was entangled with Bosinney, he did not directly retaliate against Irene, nor did he speak ill of her. He would also stop others when they said bad things about her. I also think he's cowardly, trying to keep Erin after her emotional affair.
At the same time, he hurt June, a woman who was infatuated with him, and fell in love with someone else while he was engaged to June. I don't like this character very much, but I think his ending is very sad.
