D. A contradiction between appearance and reality
"I take the theme of 'Eveline' to be one of Joyce's key preoccupations, the idea of paralysis, our inability to break out of situations that have become home for us, even when those situations are unpleasant or worse. Most of the story is taken up with Eveline's reflections and her attempts to balance her decision"
I hope this was helpful!
They should rely on examples and pictureds
