Character is one of the most important elements of the story, the careful and artistic processing of which can express the goals and concerns of the authors. Many themes and fictional characters can be analyzed according to sociological theories and a close-up picture of fictional characters can be drawn. In the present article, the main character of the novel Another Day of Shora is analyzed based on the sociological theory of Erving Goffman. According to Erving Goffman's theory of theatrical metaphor, every human being plays various roles in the scene of her life according to social requirements and masks her face. Goffman believes that people try to hide their flaws and give a good image of themselves. The present study seeks to show what areas led Shora to play a role in managing the new relationship it has encountered; What solutions does it use? In the present paper, the method of integrating examples extracted from the story and the interpretive analytical approach have been used. The results show that the three factors of lack of affection in the marital relationship, the effects of the husband's family and daily life underlie the council's tendency to create an unusual relationship. Shora uses two strategies of disguise and isolation to implement the plans and manage the new relationship. Although the end of the relationship is unpleasant for the council, she is successful in carrying out her plans.
