I don't feel comfortable posting a bad essay that needs further revising. =/ sorry guys.

revised:
In James Joyce’s “Eveline,” Eveline has the opportunity to elope with a man who can save her from her miserable life and abusive father. She must make a choice between the bitter familiar and promising unknown. Eveline lives with her father in the small, run down town where she grows up. Her mother and favorite brother, Ernest are dead. Harry, her other brother has moved away, leaving Eveline with her father. She fears that her father will begin to beat her, like he beat her mother. Eveline attempts to rationally weigh the pros and cons of each scenario. The sensible choice for her at this point would be to leave and begin a better life in Buenos Ayres. However, Eveline’s turbulent emotions and indecisiveness cause the story to travel circles. Her turbulent emotions, set off by her fear of the unknown, ultimately prevents Eveline from distinguishing the rational from the irrational, thus causing her to make a hasty, rash decision.
