The Boys of "A & P" and "Araby" John Updike’s "A & P" and James Joyce’s "Araby" are very similar. The theme of the two stories is about a young man who is interested in figuring out the difference between reality and the fantasies of romance that play in his head and of the mistaken thoughts each has about their world‚ the girls‚ and themselves. One of the main similarities between the two stories is the fact that the main character has built up unrealistic expectations of women. Both characters

"Araby" is a short complex story by James Joyce that I believe is a reflection of his own life as a boy growing up in Dublin. James Joyce uses the voice of a young boy as a narrator; however the narrator seems much more mature then the boy in the story. The story focuses on escape and fantasy; about darkness‚ despair‚ and enlightenment: and I believe it is a retrospective of Joyce’s look back at life and the constant struggle between ideals and reality. I believe Araby employs many themes; the

The continuing story-line throughout this novel is Mack and the boys determination to throw Doc a party. The narrator describes Doc as “Doc would listen to any kind of nonsense and turn it into wisdom. His mind had no horizon -- and his sympathy had no warp.

“How’d He Do That” I believe the narrative of “Araby” is like the book of Genesis as a sense of gaining knowledge rather than loosing purity. Throughout the beginning of “Araby” the boy is content with his friends and daily rituals just like Adam and Eve were happily content with the garden they inhabited. However‚ when the boy lays eyes on a girl who is older than he‚ and in a sense “forbidden fruit”‚ his vision begins to tunnel and she soon becomes an idol to him causing him to block out all his surroundings
