    In the stories‚ “What of This Goldfish‚ Would You Wish”‚ “A Visit to Grandmother”‚ and “Without a Title” there is something they all have in common. I think that when someone leaves their regular lifestyle‚ the way they think and behave can change‚ and that is exactly what happened in these three different stories.
