Compare And Contrast Magic Flawk And Dhowli

In any work of literature, there is always an antagonist to a protagonist but it isn't often that a protagonist will be their own antagonist in a piece; acting their own source of conflict as well as possible downfall. However, in both Magic Chalk and Dhowli it can be seen that the protagonist goes through a series of events that leads to their inevitable downfall, many of which are actually dealt not by fate, but consequences of the choices they make. Argon and Dhowli, though of different cultures and circumstances, both struggle to deal with misfortune after misfortune, most seemingly by their own hands, essentially reaping what they sow. In this paper, the focus will be on how these two seemingly different characters can be tied together
