All the people in these stories have found their purpose in life. To begin with‚ in the story‚ “A Clean Well-Lighted Place “ an old man who struggled to find a way

A Clean Well-Lighted Place In the short story “A Clean Well-lighted Place” by Ernest Hemingway the setting is very important. The story takes place in a Spanish speaking country in a café‚ but more so than the actual place the time is what makes the setting so crucial to the story.

waiter interprets this as “no reason” and scoffs‚ saying that it doesn’t make sense. However‚ the reason actually is “nothing”; “nothing” being the emptiness that is present in all of us‚ and the desperate search for meaning. The last symbol in “A Clean Well Lighted Place” is the soldier who passes by the cafe. He is walking on the street with a girl‚ who the waiters presume to be a prostitute‚ and the young waiter points out that he should get off the street or the guard will catch him. The older

to godliness". We can keep our city clean only if the people of our city think like us. Without public cooperation we cannot achieve anything. So first to keep our city clean there should be a huge awareness to the public via various mass media and news papers.

Sarah Ruhl’s The Clean House is a play ripe for a director’s dissection‚ with deep reflections of love and loss. I consider the central character‚ Mathilde‚ a Brazilian maid‚ who has a job cleaning the house of an uptight American doctor (Lane)‚ to be the axis from which the action of the play orbits around.

Both men are of age and like to be out‚ late at night‚ alone. Asides from the story alone‚ the theme of the story can be brought out by the setting. The setting contributes
