symbolism
• There are several ways to recognize symbolism in literature. One is the frequency an object or character is mentioned in a piece of literature — if it is mentioned often, it is probably important. Another way to find a symbol is to look at how much detail is used in describing an object. These two methods give clues that the writer wants you to infer something about a particular object.
3. What do you know about Clark and his family? Do they get along? Why does he quarrel with his wife?
