Throughout the novel Maestro, written by Peter Goldsworthy, the main character Paul experiences new friends and new relationships. ...
When Paul and his mother attend Paul’s first piano lesson, Paul shows his immaturity and arrogance by being quick to judge his piano teacher Keller. His first impression of Keller is “Unforgettable, the red glow of his face- a boozer’s incandescent glow” (p3). He points out the state of Keller’s hands and notes that he had lost the top of his ring finger “I couldn’t take my eyes away from them. ... Paul muses to himself that Keller does not possess the stereotypical hands needed for playing the piano; they are far from perfect. This sort
of attitude reflects Paul’s lack of experience in having relationships with people and that he doesn’t have a good sense of maturity nor does he possess good manners.
