In the short story After ‘ While by Cherie Dimaline, diction and imagery are often used to develop the theme of coming of age, and dysfunctional family dynamics in this text. The theme of dysfunctional family dynamics is portrayed in the text by the writer using diction and imagery. In the first paragraph of the text, the tooth fairy's decision to give Lucky a bowling trophy rather than the customary reward raises the question of whether Lucky's life is truly average. A lack of stability and continuity in Lucky's existence is also implied by the ziplock bag of pennies and the handwritten note from the tooth fairy. Firstly, the assumption that Arnya's familial dynamics are problematic is reinforced by her remark, "Screw 'em all and let Jesus sort it out," and her disposition to put off vital messages until

Both Toni Morrison’s “Sweetness” and Edward P. Jones’ “The First Day” are short stories written by African American individuals. Other than this very basic similarity, these stories and their authors bear resemblance to each other. Both of the authors lived in a time before the internet, cell phones and probably more importantly the rise of an equal rights for all races movement. Given these facts and their shared African heritage, it is understandable both of the stories have at least an undertone of racial issues.

This short story shows that the author has been mastered the art of foreshadowing, symbolism and irony by her diction, narration and the shocking revealed at the end. Despite of the joyful tone Jackson tells the story that started with a beautiful summer day in June, the author gave away some foreshadow hints and symbolism throughout the flow of the plot that we can somehow predict what will happen in the future.

The deafening roar from the crowd filled my ears, as it had done so many times before. I reached down, picked up my ear pieces lying across my shoulders, and placed one in each ear. As the stagehand passed me the mic, my pulse quickened. Standing on the platform beneath the stage, waiting for it to rise, my shoulders tightened. Fourteen years, performing on stages around the world hadn't banished my pre-show jitters.
