Detailed explanation-1: -The narrator is unnamed in ‘ Araby, ” but he lives with his aunt and uncle on North Richmond Street in Dublin. He lives a rather typical life, playing with neighborhood friends and attending school until he notices the sister of one of his friends.
Detailed explanation-2: -The narrator’s uncle in “Araby” is an interesting antagonist because he wanted and promised to give the narrator the money he needed for the bazaar, and he only foils his nephew’s plans by accident. Further, the story never explains why the narrator is being raised by his aunt and uncle instead of his parents.
Detailed explanation-3: -The aunt is the narrator’s mother figure. She seems to be a very religious Catholic, worrying that the Araby bazaar is a Freemason event.
Detailed explanation-4: -He thinks about her when he accompanies his aunt to do food shopping on Saturday evening in the busy marketplace and when he sits in the back room of his house alone.
