Satis House

Question 1

Summary

Answer 1

• Reggie arrives as Ms. MacDonald’s “bleak bungalow”. She looks unwell.
• Ms. MacDonald lives almost right against the East Coast railroad line and hardly notices the way each passing train shakes the house. Reggie is startled every time, though. Banjo shows no interest in taking a walk in the cold, gusty night, so they stay in front of the gas fire. The banging of the door knocker in the wind sounds like “an unseen visitor desperate to get in.”
