Write a note on the Urban-Social Realism that forms the technique in The Tin Flute.

The first paragraph of Chapter twenty one reads:

Florentine had grown more or less immune to the charms of spring. April was gone, May was making a timid start in the neighbourhood of St. Henri, and the old trees along the streets, imbedded in cement, had budded and grown green without winning a single glance fkom her as she walked twice a day between her home and the store. But tonight, as she left the Five and Ten, she couldn’t help stopping in wonderment at the softness of the air, as if she had awakened to a transformation that had taken place while she was absent, missing its different stages. The sun still warmed Notre Dame Street, despite the late hour. Above the cobblers’ sh~ps, the hit stores and other small establishments, apartments windows opened on interiors which added their intimate murmur to the sounds of traffic outside. Between the loud passage of a train, a heavy truck or a streetcar, the faint sound of a distant church bell might find its way into those open windows. (p.246)

This is a good example of Roy’s remarkable powers of observation and reproduction. Whatever she does with descriptions is done with great accuracy and economy. The exactitude is cultivated as a value in itself.
