bouncing old retired general--he's dotty over motors. Roars around on a shocking old motor bike--mustache and dignity flying in the morning breeze--atrocious bills for all the geese and curates he runs over.
In Sinclair Lewis's "Dodsworth," there is a whimsical portrayal of a retired general known for his eccentricity. He has a deep passion for motorcycles, which leads him to ride a dilapidated bike with carefree abandon. The image is one of joyful recklessness, with his mustache and sense of dignity swept away in the wind as he speeds along the roads. His adventurous spirit comes with a downside, as he inadvertently causes chaos by running over geese and, occasionally, curates. The general's antics culminate in a series of hefty bills that reflect the humorous yet chaotic life he leads in his retirement, showcasing both his charm and his dotty nature.
