After reading the short story, “The Red Convertible”, by Louise Erdrich, it is evident that the red convertible, in the story, is symbolic of the connection between Henry and Lyman. Their connection was unique in the fact that they were not only brothers, but also connected through the purchase of the red convertible, that they had bought together.
