Authors get across their ideas by using literary devices.

Seeing as he lived a sad life had made the villagers want to live happier and more fulfilling lives. Therefore the fact that Esteban had had a miserable life made them want to live happier lives.…

“Keep love in your hearts. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.”-Oscar Wilde Wilde hints at, that without love, your heart is like dead flowers in a sunless garden. Whereas, if there is love in your heart, your garden is full of blooming flowers. Love is a strong connection between people or objects that means a lot to them. In “Death and Transfiguration of a Teacher” Solari expresses the love between money and poetry. However, “The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World” portrays love between two unique people. In the stories “The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World” and “Death and Transfiguration” both Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Maria Teresa Solari embody love as a metaphor throughout the story.…
A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings is a story about a Colombian couple, Pelayo and Elisenda, whom discovered a mysterious old in the park during a tropical storm. The man had enormous…
The commonality between Gabriel Garcia Márquez’s “The Very Old Man with Enormous Wings” and Shel Silverstein’s The Giving Tree, is the exploitation of a grotesque character and the sacrifices they make for the sake of their relationships and situation. Each exploited character represents that gullible and somewhat easily exploitable part of us, that will go to great lengths to keep those we think show us love and acceptance, fulfilled and enticed. By using the grotesque, the reader is allowed to immerse themselves in the amplified personas of these fantastic characters, and their motivation to indulge the selfish, thoughtless, abuse of their resources and basic rights.…

In reading the story “The Swimmer”, the main character Neddy Merrill, takes his journey home through swimming pools of his neighborhood, which then progresses into a journey through the years of his life. This is showing that the passage of time is inevitable, and no matter how much one might ignore it, it still passes. It is shown in this story that Neddy has been in denial of reality the entire time as well. At the beginning of this story it states that Neddy is “far from young,” but he does his best to act young by diving head first into a pool. The afternoon at the Westerhazys’ pool seems to be very long and timeless, which seems no different than many previous afternoons that may have been spent the same way. He begins his begins his journey…

The crab was now gone, not even a trace of its narrow shadow disappearing over the worn turn of the road. It had probably come across a delighted cat, and made a fine meal. I felt a needle-like point of grief prick my numbed senses. There was also the faint, but optimistic chance that it had done away with the odds, and found freedom.…
The current state of Company Q’s attitude toward social responsibility is by far obsolete. The sheer fact that the company would rather throw away good product then help the community not only gives the community a clear view that they do not matter but it also shows that the company is more about their bottom line then fostering a community. Also the fact that Company Q has closed stores due to loss of revenue shows that they did not house products that section of the community caters to. A higher income section could well afford organically grown produce as well as high end cheeses where as a low income section would opt for more affordable products like boxed meals and generic brands. Company Q’s fear of employees stealing should not deter them from…
