In this story the character of Miss Brill is revealed through the details expressed through Miss Brill's point of view as well as the actions and dialogue of other characters. Mansfield's use of indirect characterization helps the reader fully understand Miss Brill. As Miss Brill's character is revealed she becomes both a round and developing character due to her complexity and abrupt change in personality, outlook, and character.

The complexity of Miss Brill's character is quite perplexing. Miss Brill is a round character with many different sides. In the beginning of this story, Miss Brill seems to be a part of the upper class and enjoys her Sunday afternoons in the Jardins Publiques especially during the Season (Perrine's Literature 98). Howeve

Miss Brill underwent a major personality, outlook, and character. As a developing character Miss Brill was forced to face reality of who she was, where she came from, and what others thought of her. First of all, the fur that Miss Brill totes along to the gardens has important relativity to Miss Brill. In a sense, they are exactly alike. The fur came out of its box on Sundays and had to be brushed and made pretty to go out (Perrine's Literature 98). Miss Brill was a hermit who only really came out of her cupboard on Sundays to go to the gardens. When she went to the gardens she always tried to look her best. Miss Brill petted and stroked the fur as she sat in the park. Miss Brill gave the fur the love and compassion that she was missing in her life because she was alone and lonely. When the girl in the park refers to the fur as a fried whiting it gives a mental picture of a ragged, old, worn out fur. Miss Brill is also referred to by the boy as a stupid old thing who no one wants (Perrine's Literature 100). The fur and Miss Brill are not respected at all. At this point in the story Miss Brill is finally forced to realize who she is and what others think of her. At the end of the story when the fur is put away in its box it is inferred that the fur will not come out of the box again. Likewise Miss Brill will not likely go out to the gardens anymore because she did not stop for the special piece of cake she usually gets on Sundays on her way home. She hears the fur
