From above, Tom’s monopolization has two sides. One is to the roof woman who is his “doll”, and the other is to men. He is reluctant to share his “doll” with others. Tom is a half-man boy, not mature in psychological. His love, in his mind, is romantic, and will bring the woman boundless enjoyment. As a mater of fact, his pappy love is based on his conceitedness, illusion and daydream. Finally his dream ended with hatred of her. The result is God’s fixed. But who will be fixed? Tom, the roof woman or the public? The reason of his love’s corruption is that he initiated his pursuit on the possession and conquest. At meanwhile, the desire of romantic love is strong. “Last night he had thought of the unknown woman before he slept, and she had been tender with him.” But he didn’t concerned about the others’ feeling. Therefore, his love to others is a burden and in fact, he never really pursued the roof woman, never knew about the woman. “unknown woman” is just his prey, his goal to prove that he was a mature man like Stanley to draw women’s attention.
At last but not least. According to three manifestations of desire to control, the charming attraction, ruling role and possession alone, the novel successfully guides the light
literature into a height of humanity cognition, making the desire diversified.
