![]() ![]() Bendrix invites Henry to accompany him to the pub for a drink, Henry agrees, and they walk to the nearest one.Īt the pub, Bendrix and Henry each order a rum, and Bendrix thinks back through the years to remember how he originally got to know Henry and Sarah. Henry tells Bendrix that Sarah has gone out for the night. Bendrix thinks to himself that he would be thrilled to hear that Sarah is unhappy and sick because learning that she is suffering would diminish his own suffering. Bendrix asks Henry about his wife, Sarah, simply because it would seem unusual not to. Henry, on the other hand, appears enthusiastic about seeing Bendrix, noting that he hasn’t seen Bendrix in quite some time and implying that any hatred between the two is entirely one-sided. He catches sight of Henry Miles standing alone in the rain, and even though he hates Henry, Bendrix greets him. Maurice Bendrix, who is both the protagonist and narrator of The End of the Affair, notes that this story is “a record of hate far more than of love.” One cold and rainy night, Bendrix walks out of his apartment with the intention of going to a nearby pub. ![]()
