In the chapter of “Night Watch”, I found difficult and confuse sentence which is “Nora had the face of all people who love the people … Nora robbed herself for everyone; incapable of giving herself warning, she was continually turning about to find herself diminished.”(p.57) First time when I read this passage, I could not understand it right away because I had no idea about meaning of “face of all people”, “robbed herself” and “to find herself diminished”. I thought there is a misuse of words, that can be also said as defects in expression, not to understand literally. Perhaps it is a metaphorical statement, I believe, so it was harder to understand. By reading the whole chapter, however, I became increasingly able to find the meaning of this sentence. As I understood about Nora’s personality, I thought to myself; this sentence is used to describe Nora’s “sacrifice” aspect. Nora is a sort of “self-giving” character in the “Nightwood”, so that is why she knows how everybody’s face looks, and then she robbed, or sacrificed herself “for everyone”. Even though she will become weak, or her life will be diminished, Nora robbed and sacrificed herself “continually”. Therefore, this sentence has defects of expression, frankly, there is not only this sentence but also several other sentences, but if I am able to identify the whole contents of the chapter, it is possible to overcome the defect. In other words, the sentence will be make sense to me.
