Zitat:
Cornelius J. Holingsworth is a Jewish immigrant from Russia.
He immigrated from Minsk-Pinsk to New York and now sells bananas there.
His old job was as a shoe maker.
In order that, he earns enough money to survive.
He wears a vest, collarless shirt and baggy pants.
He gives Shimmel Shitzman the chance to work with him and be partners, which shows that he can be helpful. He gives him this chance because he was concerned about his future. He really does haave a heart of gold.
Nevertheless he is arrogant when he doesn`t want to talk with Shimmel Shitzman because he is not a politician etc.
He is also unsympathetic when he talks behind the newspaper. Furthermore he is a bit conceited when he says that all flower girls are blind in this country.
Anyway, he is a ?Crawford? when he presents Maggie flowers and claims that he will be a famous music producer. Moreover he is smart-aleck when he simply says ,,welcome to America”.
All in all the reader learns that he is rather arrogant but sometimes a friendly guy who can be helpful and generous
