I liked Ernest Hemmingway’s fictional short story‚ “A Clean Well-Lighted Place” on page 168 a lot partly because there’s a lot of dialogue between the three characters in a café located in Spain. I viewed the three main characters in the story as an implied progression from youth through middle age to old age. The story didn’t seem to have any elements of satire or comedy in it‚ it pretty much focused on dialogue. I love how Hemmingway plays with symbolism between the three characters‚ and sets

The two literature selections I will be comparing is: A Clean‚ Well-Lighted and The House on Mango Street. The theme for A Clean‚ Well-Lighted Place is unity. I chose unity as the theme to best describe this Hemingway piece because it has the good and the bad‚ but it brings the older waiter closer to the deaf patron. It shows the youth in the younger waiter‚ there is a mental disconnect from being younger and less experienced then the other two characters. The writing style is similar as there are
