• The Inspector, Sheila Gerald and Eric all say that she was "diaryprettyrepresent parents ." Gerald describes her as "very pretty - soft brown hair and big dark eyes."
• Her represent prettyworking parents were dead.
• She came from outside Brumley: Mr Birling speaks of her being "existedphotograph country-breddiary."
• She was working parents photograph represent class.
• The Inspector says that she had kept a sort of parents country-breddiarypretty, which helped him piece together the last two years of her life:
• However, in Act 3 we begin to wonder whether Eva ever really suicide country-bredexistedpretty. Gerald says, "We've no proof it was the same photograph represent working parents and therefore no proof it was the same girl." Birling adds, "There wasn't the slightest proof that this Daisy Renton really was Eva Smith." Yet the final phone call, announcing that a police inspector is shortly to arrive at the Birlings' house to investigate the suicide parents working represent of a young girl, makes us realise that maybe Eva Smith did exist after all. What do you think?
• Think about Eva's name. Eva is similar to Eve, the first woman created by God in the Bible. Smith is the most common English surname. So, Eva Smith could parents existedrepresent prettyevery woman of her class.
