Hills Like White Elephants - Symbolism
well there are two sides to the station. on one side it is fertile. full of trees, fields of grain, a river and mountains. this means that this is one choice that she has which would be the beutiful one to have but it will be difficult( meaning the mountains) unlike the dry side, there are no trees and no shade with hills implying, simple yet dull life
She is probably being sarcastic because she is neither psychologically nor physically "fine," if by "fine" we mean normal. And the fact that she repeats it emphasizes both this sarcasm and her anoyance at the situation, esp. his reaction to her.
It always seemed to me that when Jig walks to the end of the train platform she is trying out being alone. Tring to see what it feels like. Then she walks back to a man who does not care for her as much as she cares for him. And this is what causes the reader to fel sympathy for her.
