Character Sketch of the Short Story “Cat in the Rain” by Ernest Hemingway
George
George, the husband of the American woman, reads on a bed in an Italian hotel room throughout
the most of the narrative. He and his wife are on vacation in the nation. George appears to be
attentive to his wife at times, offering to go down and retrieve the cat that she sees from their
hotel window and complimenting her on her appearance, but ultimately he doesn’t seem to be
able to understand or react to her loneliness or misery. He answers by instructing her to stop up
and go fetch something to read when she comes back to their room after failing to find the cat
and shares a long list of needs and desires with him.
