INDECISIVE WARDROBE 14:39 Feb 16, 2011
I scena koja prethodi pasusu koji je dat kao kontekst svjedoči o dugoročnom premišljanju i vaganju prije sigurnosti u svoju odluku i istrajnosti:
"Jeff Plummer was hunkered down in one of the windows, studying his fingernails, maybe, his jaws moving on a stick of gum. And he didn't like telling Bob off--and he didn't sound like he was; just easy-going and casual--but he was sure as hell doing it. "No, sir, Bob," he drawled. "Been kind of studyin' things over, and I reckon I ain't going to do no spying no more. Ain't going to do it a-tall." "You got your mind made up, huh? You're plumb set?" "Well, now, it sure looks that way, don't it? Yes, sir, I reckon that's prob'ly the way it is. Can't rightly see it no other way." "You see how it's possible to do a job if'n you don't follow orders? You reckon you can do that?" …. "Well, now, I don't know as I'd put it that way. Don't reckon I'd even prod him about why he was askin'. I'd just figure he was a man, and a man just does what he has to."
Pošto žanr obiluje slikovitim izrazima, bilo bi šteta ne koristiti sličan izraz, naročito pošto ormar upućuje na porodičnog čovjeka, a doprinosi i humoru (a odražava i pripovedačev podsmijeh). |
