Being old is a concept formed by those not yet affected. In Katherine Mansfield’s "Miss Brill" and Ernest Hemingway’s "A Clean Well-Lighted Place"‚ both protagonists are roughly the same age; however‚ their outlook on life differs drastically.

The story "A Clean‚ Well-Lighted Place" by Earnest Hemingway‚ in my opinion‚ is a story about a mans loneliness. The story starts out in an empty café‚ very late at night. Even the setting symbolizes gloominess. There are two waiters one old‚ one young. The older waiter is lonly‚ and the young waiter has a wife.
