according to the authors’ use of the literary devices discussed in chapter 7 of Literature.

In other words, if you had to teach a class on symbolism and how it is used in literature, which of these stories would provide the best examples. How are the stories alike in the authors’ use of symbolism? How are they different? How do the authors incorporate symbolism in the stories? What about the authors’ styles? Are they similar?
