When mr. pontellier learned of his wife's intention to abandon her home and take up her residence elsewhere, he immediately wrote her a letter of unqualified disapproval and remonstrance. she had given reasons which he was unwilling to acknowledge as adequate. he hoped she had not acted upon her rash impulse; and he begged her to consider first, foremost, and above all else, what people would say. what does mr. pontellier’s letter reveal about his personality?

Judging from the information you have given about the letter, it reveals some choice things about Mr. Pontellier's character. It would seem he cares first and foremost about his reputation and how his wife's absence would affect what people would think of her and therefore him. He writes a letter, not begging her to stay with him or to rethink her choice; but rather, he tells her how disappointed he is in her and scolds her. He refused to accept her reasons for leaving and insulted her by calling her decision a "rash impulse". His personality is clearly, egotistical and selfish.
