Paul Dunbar’s poem Sympathy uses an extended metaphor to compare his feelings of isolation and oppression to that of a caged bird. This poem has a depressing tone however it is hopeful too; as he never gives up on the hope of being free one day. Carl Sandburg’s poem Chicago uses a different approach; he uses personification to present the city as a strong, proud, and fierce person. He speaks of the negative aspects of the city such as crime, poverty, and prostitution because he wants people to know that it isn’t perfect but he loves it anyways. Paul Dunbar believes in the American Dream and that many can reach wealth and social success, just not him because of the racial oppression at this time.

All of this gives me the idea that she is hiding something because the passage from page three shows how she saw Nancy bleeding out with Grace Kerchiet than she doesn’t tell Dr. Jordan this; she tells him something completely different. I would thing if you’re innocent you would just tell Dr. Jordan everything and not try to twist everything alike Grace does the whole story. On page 398 and those few pages when she is under hypnosis; I also holds strong to prove that she is guilty. I think on this passage when she tells Dr. Jordan that she was taken over by Mary Whitney, her friend’s spirit. I think this is just something she is trying to do to make them think so if she is guilty she can plead insanity if she would need to.

While both women endured their brutal murders, they screamed out hoping to stop the killing and receive help from others. In “The Lottery”, Mrs. Hutchinson screamed, “It isn’t fair, it isn’t right” (Jackson 318), and in “Thirty-Eight Who Saw Murder Didn’t Call the Police”, Catherine Genovese screamed, “Oh my God, he stabbed me! Please help me! Please help me!” and “I’m dying” (Gansberg 121). In Shirley Jackson’s story, the town people are solely responsible for killing Mrs. Hutchinson by voluntarily picking up stones and stoning her to death.
