Going on the East End walking tour today really brought Brick Lane to life for me; seeing all of the shops and vendors when I was walking around made me think of Nazneen running around while she was pregnant with her son. She travels down to the very end of brick lane which I walked three quaters of today and she talks of a lot of the general sights I saw that are usually common to brick lane like the bustling people and all of the restaurants with the waiters standing out front “with their tight black pants…holding out menus and smiles” (38) though she mentions it is deserted while she’s traveling it. I also saw flats that gave me a visual idea of how Nazeen was able to just look out of her window and see the tattooed woman sitting on her patio. That was particularly interesting to me because when reading it I had a hard time picturing what she meant because it’s less common to sit out on patios back home, especially in an apartment.
