Q) “new york aint got nothing chicago aint” to “no, cause aint nobody with me”
How are Walter feelings portrayed?
A) In this extract, Walter illustrates the profound sentiments that he is imbued with, through a series of pejorative remarks and a sardonic tone towards george as he conversates with him
Bitterness towards george’s affluence is signified throughout the extract. “Faggoty white shoes” is an instance where walter indicates his repulsion towards the fashion trends followed by prosperous people in society. This is accentuated when he says “she looks like she got burnt legs or something”, showing how he rebukes her attempts to assimilate into society and pursue
Irony is implied when he says that education is futile, while he himself has no affiliation with education. It also shows his outlook on life and hardwork. He does not feel the need to acquire knowledge and only seems interested in making money and “take over and run the world”. A shortcut to success
Lastly he laments how “nobody with me” to share the same ideology as him. He is enraged as there seems to be a discord between him and every other member he conversates with.
