The Quality



   The Quality is a short story written by John Galsworthy. The story is narrated as a first person narrative techniques. This story is about a shoe makers life. The name of shoe makers is gessler brothers. This story also shows the effect of industrialism on small business and his struggle.

   The Gessler brothers are German shoe makers and they lived in London. They have a small shop of shoes. Both are making a shoes with good quality on order. The story narrator is a regular customer of that shop.

    Gessler brothers shoes quality are really best and comfortable for customer. The one thing is that after one order one has not to visit it again for long time.

   Narrator visit a that shop and every time he ordered shoes.Once narrator says to Mr. Gessler that the shoe has a crack at that time Mr. Gessler asks to bring it back he will fix it and if he can not than he will return the money. Once when narrator visits the shop the elder brother has died and younger Mr. Gessler was at the shop. After that narrator has ordered many pairs of shoes. After receiving the order he does not need to visit the shop for some period of time. Next time when he goes he again order many pairs of shoes. After receiving the order once he was passing by that road and decided to visit Mr. Gessler and to tell him that shoes were very nice. But when he reaches there he see some other English man, who informs narrator that Mr. Gessler has died because of starvation. All money he earned was gone in buying row materials for shoes and in paying rent.


    At the end gessler brothers has tried to maintain quality of shoes. Not focused on another things. There are talk between narrator and Mr. Gessler that how big business and company affect on his business. How it's harmful for their business.



   Gessler brothers have pointed that those big company do not provide quality they just have quality and different designs. That design attract the audience but that is a complaining about a quality. People only focused on  design more than quality. That type of company was harmful Mr . Gessler brother's small business.

Thank you
