Contrast The Theme Of Deception And Truth By Graham Sekar

Both stories have a message that the authors are trying to express through irony and or paradox.
The author Narayan compares deception or truth, as if it were like the sun, where no human can ever look straight at the sun without being blinded by it. Sekar was the main character and he had to go through a few trials of truth; his first one was him having to be truthful about his wife's terrible, culinary dish she had made him. His second trial was to give an honest opinion about his headmaster’s music/band, which he told the truth and said it was horrible enough that when the headmaster asked if he should keep practicing, but Sekar basically told him to quit cause he stunk at music. The author Saki compares deception and truth as if it were
and open window. The open window can likewise refer to the way that Framton Nuttel leaves himself open or exposed to be tricked by Vera, or it is the open window that Vera uses to start off her chilling story, and it is the return of her uncles through that very open window that triggers Framton Nuttel's hasty departure. Both stories had a symbolic meaning of truth telling behind them. Price of telling/not telling truth; What is said by the main characters who interact with others and how it affects these people. Both stories revolve around what is done with the truth. Reaction to the use of truth; Other characters react strongly to the voice of what they believe is the truth.
