Steinbeck deliberately highlights how easy it is for a character to be overlooked to show how Candy uses it to his advantage by getting the men’s secrets. Steinbeck effectively uses the character, Candy and his relationship with his dog to portray the dull and dismal society of 1930s America and the harsh effect it had on migrant workers across America. Their disabilities result into their un-acceptance of their being in society. Candy's dog is killed and candy realises he is no longer of any use and will soon get the sack, 'when they can me, I wisht someone shoot me, I won't have no place to go.'

He then tortures him until Winston really ends up loving The Party. This is an example of how good, Winston’s will to want to overthrow The Party, is destroyed by evil, The Party.

Even though Creon, the princess’ father, allowed Medea to stay, a “good” action, Medea, being evil, was still determined to get her revenge. When Winston gets brainwashed by The Party, they torture him with
This “pretentious” nature of society is one that Holden will not conform to and this is the key idea is the relationship between the two protagonists. Using this knowledge, we can apply it to Igby and his views of the “face value” society he strives to escape. “I love the fact that the captain of the morality team invites his chick to the same party as his wife...Embrace your moral hypocrisy, D.H…” and “I'm going to California…3000 miles from fucking here.” Both quotes highlight Igby’s desire to escape a society in which superficiality rules supreme. This perspective held dearly to his heart effectively destroys his relationship with his family and surrounding friends. Holden explores the concept of relationships through the similar attitudes displayed towards popular society and his repulsion of their values.

When Janie meets Tea Cake, a poor and adventurous worker, she knows that he is seen as an undesirable and unsuitable match for her: “Janie, everybody’s talkin’ bout how Tea Cake is draggin you round tuh places you ain’t used tuh” (112). Knowing that people saw Tea Cake as an incompatible match did not stop Janie from loving him. Janie understood societies view of him, but did not allow this to stop her from trying to find true love. Through Tea Cake, Janie learned that real love is feeling appreciated and truly desired, and that her past relationships were not love: “Tea Cake love me in blue, so Ah wears it. Jody ain’t never in his life picked out no color for me”(112).
* “dying orchids on the floor beside her bed” pg 151 quote * Daisy was in a fog and she did not know what to do without Gatsby. * The beauty of the orchids had gone away now and they were “dying” because the happiness of her evening came and went so quickly like the life of the orchids.

Overall the holes in the stockings represent the need for love, support and harmony within the family. Furthermore, the image of Linda mending the stockings reinforces her constant need to try and ease the tension in the house. She acts as a sponge that sucks out the tension in the house to create harmony. Likewise, it also symbolizes the accommodative nature of her towards Willy; whereas she tries not to pressure him or belittle him for his short- comings- failure to earn money to support the family, she provides excuses of why Biff has no steady job and why Happy is a “philandering bum.” The

His thoughts are purely of himself, without any interference from Lady
