        <description><![CDATA[

In "The Japanese Quince", John Galsworthy is pointing out the ideal of a same, well-ordered, and familiar life has alienated men from both the enjoyment and the beauty of the natural world. Both Mr. Nilson and Mr. Tandram are well-off English businessmen who have let their jobs take over their lives. While both look healthy and happy, Nilson suffers from "an aching feeling just below his fifth rib" and Tandram is totally alienated from his...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Mr. Nilson is the protagonist. He is a relatively rich man who is out of touch with the world. He doesn't even know his next door neighbor. Ironically, the neighbor, Mr. Tandram, is almost exactly like Mr. Nilson. Neither men is able to truly appreciate the beauty of the quince tree and both seem to be stuck in a well-ordered but bland world. Unfortunately, Mr. Nilson doesn't recognize his own similarities with his neighbor and continues his...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Whom does the story focus on? Whom does it open with? Whom does it close with? Even though there are two men in the story, we know more about one of them than the other. And what we do learn about the minor character serves to increase our understanding of the protagonist. So whom do you think the protagonist is?]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The Japanese Quince most probably symbolizes nature and nature's beauty which Mr. Nilson and Mr. Tandram have both been ignoring for years.

Their awkward moment together indicates how comfortable Nilson has become with his safe, ordered, and familiar life. Both men are so awkward when meeting each...]]></description>
