Enormous radio is a pleasant short story which shows the realities in an ironic way. Irene is the main character in the story and i think that her name is related to the word ‘ironic’ because of her situation. She listens her neighbours daily conversations and sees the facts in true light by the ‘magical’ radio. However, she doesn’t realize that the things that she hears in the radio, is the reflection of her own life. It is thereason that i find her name relevant with the word ironic. Another interesting point is Irene’s quote which is ‘ turn that thing off maybe they can hear us’ . She can’t feel honest and afraid to be honest with herself. She doesn’t forbear to listen her neighbours lifes but she is afraid to be heard by someone else.
