The story "Mr.Know-all" starts of on a cruise boat from San Francisco to Yokohama.
The two main characters of the story are the narrator and Mr.Kalade, which are placed in a position where the narrator dislikes Mr.Kalade in every way possible.
The narrator is a very proud, arrogant british man, who wanted nothing more but to share a cabin with another british man. The narrator was thankful he got to share a cabin with only one more person, because back then some people had to share a cabin with three more people they didnt know.
But after the narrator found out he had to share a cabin with someone named Max Kalade he couldnt accept the fact that Mr.Kalade wasnt british thanks to his name, and right then the narrator began to dislike Mr.Kalade before even knowing him personally.
On the other hand, Mr.Kalade is a very warming, giving and friendly person that really wanted to be friends with the narrator, after all they had to spend fourteen days onboard. Mr.Kalade was always present near the narrator, in the cabin, in the dining room, on deck and he was very chatty.
Because Mr.Kalade was so friendly, he knew everyone on the boat in three days, he ran all of the events, so there were planty of stuff to do for the next fourteen days, and eventually he was named Mr.Know-all by the passengers.
In conclusion, I really think Mr.Kalade is a great person, always being giving and friendly, and that the narrator was overconfident saying he dislikes Mr.Kalade before even meeting him, if he could of giving Mr.Kalade a chance, the narrator probably whould of thought otherwise.
