William Faulkner/ Comparing Short Stories
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page analysis of two of William Faulkner's short stories, 'Barn Burning' and 'That Evening Sun.' In each of these stories, Faulkner addresses the economic structure of the South as a way of illustrating the social pressures that served to keep segments of the population oppressed. Despite this similarity, however, each story has diametrically opposed effects in that 'That Evening Sun' illustrates the injustice of oppression against poor blacks, yet 'Barn Burning' displays that the oppression that affected the poor whites was largely brought on by the father of the family quite intentionally. Bibliography lists 6 sources. 99bb&tes.wps

Setting in 'Devil in a Blue Dress' and Skinwalkers
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page paper discussing these novels by Walter Mosley and Tony Hillerman, respectively.

No additional sources cited.
