The disinterest in the subjects discussed at the table
Hello.
Are the following sentences grammatically correct?
"The disinterest in the subjects discussed at the table was an attitude that had grown increasingly more in Ted. Perhaps it was not the fact of considering them unimportant, but other subjects occupied their thoughts insistently. At the astonished look of his family, he got up from the table without saying anything."
Thanks.
