  • The narrator is raised by his aunt and uncle.He develops a crush on his friend Mangan's sister.He watches her stealthily,waiting for her to leave in the mornings so that he can follow her on his way to school.

    One day,the girl asked if he will go to Araby,a bazaar with an Arabian theme.She can't go.The narrator,full of romantic notions,says he will go and bring some gift for her.

    The boy reminds his uncle that he wishes to go to the bazaar that night.His uncle will have to get home on time to give him the money needed for the bazaar.His uncle has forgotten about the bazaar,so he came home very late that night.The narrator takes the small sum of money for the train and heads off.

    He arrives at the bazaar just as it is closing.Only a few stalls are open.He examines the goods,but they are far too expensive.The lights are turning out,and the narrator despairs.
