compare/contrast essay on the short stories: Helix and Newlywed by Yoshimoto

Please write an essay, at least 1000 words in length (12-point font, Times New Roman script, double spaced), including an introduction, a conclusion, and three body paragraphs (OR TWO LONGER ONES), about short stories we read in the second part of the course. Please try to organize each body paragraph around a literary technique (topic sentences for body paragraphs should explain how the authors handling of a literary technique, such as character, allows you to arrive at the interpretation that you argue in your thesis). It is recommended that you proofread/edit your work to improve your grade. Make sure that you submit your essay in MLA format (you will lose up to 2% for not formatting properly). (you should use the essay questions generally to formulate a thesis statement that will focus your paper; dont worry about answering each part of your question): Helix by Banana Yoshimoto explores the boundary between self and other in a love relationship. Newlywed is a story that leads its protagonist to reassess his relationship to his new wife because of a sudden compulsion he feels to break out of his routine, which takes him on an adventure of self-discovery. In what way is a helper figure important in both these stories to allow the protagonist to arrive at an epiphany related to his life, and to pull him out of his self-imposed solitude? Why is reconciliation to another an important idea in Yoshimotos stories, despite the fact that her characters are often strongly individualistic and authentic to themselves? Try to arrive at a thesis that is true to both stories (or alternatively, your thesis could be a comparative statement that looks at the idea of a relationship to a significant other differently in each story). For your body paragraphs, try to find 2 or 3 common techniques that the stories share (depending on how many body paragraphs you are writing); compare the development of each technique across the two stories.
