Winter Dreams Analysis


"My God, she's good-looking!" said Mr. Sandwood, who was just over thirty.
"Good-looking!" cried Mr. Hedrick contemptuously, "she always looks as if she wanted to be kissed! Turning those big cow-eyes on every calf in town!"

Throughout the story, the author depicts the how people seeking for wealth and social status. They believed in success and dreamed to achieve success. In this quotation, it is describing several men in the golf club staring at Judy. They were describing how gorgeous she was. In the meantime, this quotation shows that man dream to become rich and have beautiful wives.

"And her mouth damp to his kisses and her eyes plaintive with melancholy and her freshness like new fine linen in the morning. Why, these things were no longer in the world! They had existed and they existed no longer."

Although Dexter achieved higher social status rather than a caddies, became rich and get pretty girls, he wasn't as happy as he thought success would be.
