In the morning, Caireann woke me up. She stood above my bed, shaking my shoulder. I opened my eyes, looking at her. Then I looked across the room to her empty bed. Andy 's empty bed sat in the corner. I swallowed, climbing out of bed. "Sleep well?" Caireann asked me, starting out the door. "Yeah," I said, going over to our small dresser. I had the bottom two drawers. Andy had the middle two, and Caireann had the top. I pulled open the drawers, pulling on a colorful tank top and a gray

This excerpt from “The Treatment of Bibi Haldar” by Jhumpa Lahiri has multiple themes, but one that really stands out above others is the effects of ignorance. One would disagree with my choice of theme, but one must not be so rash with their disagreement, first you must look at the writing techniques and the choice of words that Lahiri uses in the excerpt.

One day, a month after Mako killed Tupa he was out on his canoe getting bananas. The waves became rough and the sky turned black as night. Out of nowhere Mako sees Tupa, the shark, he had recently killed. It can't be Tupa, I killed him with my spear. Then the wind blowed---thunder howled---Tupa, the great white shark turned into man. Mako's face froze of terror and see’s Tupa as a human man. “I’m Tupa and I will not harm you,” Tupa reassures Mako. The sound in Tupa’s voice is so reassuring, but

She taught us to be non-conformist, to follow our talents and dreams, to “just give it a try.” She taught us to play Scrabble to learn the importance of words, and to play cards to learn our numbers.
