Comparing and contrasting “A Man Said to the Universe” and “Out, Out-”

Not everyone can be loved. In Robert Frost’s “Out, Out-”after the boy lived his last miserable seconds, he became just another patient. Stephen Crane portrays a similar thought that, were not as important as we think in “A Man Said to the Universe”. Crane displays this thought when he says, “The fact has not created in me a sense of obligation.” Throughout these two works of literature both, Stephen Crane and Robert Frost use a similar theme but a dramatic difference in tone to express their thoughts. In “Out, Out-” the author Robert Frost retells a true, sad, and meaningful story, but in the mists of the poem Frost incorporates tone to form the main theme.
