The story I'd like to interpret is taken from the novel " Angel Pavement" and it was written by John Priestley.
The author's communicative aim is to make us take up a firm attitude, that parents should be interested in the problems of children and to be able to find common language with them.
The theme is relationship in family.
The author touches upon several crucial problems: the problem relationship between father and his son; the problem of misunderstanding and the problem of choosing a reliable friends.
The action takes place in London.
At the beginning of this story the author describes the conversation between Sergant Gailey and a father of a young gay - Mr Smeeth.
It is exposition.
Mr Smeeth knows from sergant that his son called to the police station.
The author arouses in us a feeling of regret, that father has little contact with his son.
I'd like to quote: " I don't see as much of him as I ought these days, and he just goes his own way".
I consider it is very awful when parents are not interested in the life of their children.
A gay works on people who steal cars.
In the plot of this story the author describes how Mr Smeeth tryes to talk to his son in order to resolve this unpleasant incident.
The author proclaims, that all family doesn't know about this incident.
I think that George's family is unfriendly and children don't share secrets with nearest and dearest people.
I'd like to quote:" children like these,such a strange secretive lot".
Also,the author reveals the drawbacks of Mr Smeeth to children.
He answers her daughter rude.
I'd like to quote: " Never mind about that".
Also, I suppose that children are afraid of him.
I'd like to quote: " Mr Smeeth looked sternly at him, and summoning all the forces of parental authority, he said cruelty".
The author arouses in us a feeling of sympathy to Mr Smeeth: I'd like to quote: " .. confronting a queer George in grease overalls".
I think he regrets that the missed time older son.
