Answer 1

I love this short story and, despite the fact that I read it years ago, I still remember what he does that ends in his demise. Thanks for not including a spoiler for those who haven’t read it! :) You know, the protagonist’s comment about how he should have listened to the old man all along reminds me of Hemingway’s A Clean, Well-lighted Place, and the conversation at the cafe between the two waiter: one who is younger and just itching for the final paton to get up and leave so he can head out into the night, and the older (clearly wiser) waiter who understands the patron’s need to be in a “clean, well-lighted place” and not wanting to leave. Those writers from the early 20th century…they are a breed apart. It’s why I studied the modernists at graduate school. Just can’t get enough of them.
