the main content:
The events of the story take place in New Rochelle, NY, where white people live. The story starts with a young black man coming up on a new T-Ford to one of the houses where New Rochelle family lives. The driver is a well-dressed black man who asks for Sarah, the Negro woman who has been living in their home. Mother immediately notices that he does not act as other "Negroes" do; he seems resolute and self-important. She announces the man's arrival, but Sarah refuses to see him. The man leaves but returns several weeks in a row, until finally, after some objection from Father, Mother asks the man to tea, and the family comes to know a little bit more about him. The man's name is Coalhouse Walker, Jr., and his profession is a pianist in an orchestra in New York. But when the Mother understands him to be a respectful and rich man she decides to invite him for tea. The author gives a detailed description of the way they serve him tea. The family asks Coalhouse Walker to play on the piano and he plays ragtime music so perfectly that even the whole family comes down to the parlor to look at him. Coalhouse Walker sees all members of the family but he doesn’t see Sarah. Then the Father asks him whether he knows some of coon songs which seem for Coalhouse Walker of a lower degree. All these facts seem to be unpleasant to him and he abruptly leaves the family.
Stylistic devices
A sufficient number of stylistic devices were used in this work. For example:
• he was a stocky man with a red complected shining brown face high cheekbones and large dark eyes so intense as to suggest they were about to cross; The coloured man took another glance at the child....(переносное значение, сравнение simile)
• small clear chords hung in the air like flowers. the melodies were like bouquets.( олицетворение, сравнение simile)
• pretty penny(копеечка, кругленькая сумма)перифраз periphrasis
• to work as a servant("работать как раб"сравнение simile)
• mother said, he is well-spoken and conducts himself as a gentleman.("вести себя как джентельмен",сравнение simile)
• Negro, colored man(people), black man(негр, чернокожие люди), coon song(негретянские песни-с презрением) blackface(черное лицо), long dark hands(длинные темные руки) Nightlife(ночная жизнь)эпитет, перифраз epithet,periphrasis
• there seemed to be no other possibilities for life than those delineated by the music. метафора metaphor
• His long dark hands with their pink nails seemingly with no effort producing the clusters of syncopated chords and the thumping octaves.(олицетворение personification)
In my opinion, the author wanted to convey the main idea of his work that it is necessary to know a person preferably internally than externally. I think it had turned out.
