Description
The idea of the story “The Man from the Restaurant” (1911), according to the author, is to reveal the human servant—who, due to his specific line of work, somehow becomes the focal point representing the entire mass of servants in different paths of life. The characters of the story form a single social pyramid. And the closer to the top of this pyramid, the baser the reasons for servility become—reasons that are already done “for the highest considerations.”
