Read the passage below from "Everyday Use" and answer question. In real life I am a large, big-boned woman with rough, man-working hands. In the winter I wear flannel nightgowns
to bed and overalls during the day. I can kill and clean a hog as mercilessly as a man. My fat keeps me hot in zero
weather. I can work outside all day, breaking ice to get water for washing. I can eat pork liver cooked over the open
fire minutes after it comes steaming from the hog. One winter I knocked a bull calf straight in the brain between the
eyes with a sledge hammer and had the meat hung up to chill before nightfall.
This description of Mama is an example of which type of characterization?

so are you asking to write a page on why its so wrong?

answer: confusion.

the short story "lather and nothing else" by hernando tellez describes the inner struggles of a barber. he is a revolutionary, and while he is at his shop, he sees an important leader of the government come in. the barber has the choice of just shaving him, or killing him, and throughout the story, he struggles with having to choose one or the other one.

through this monologue, the mood that is created is one of confusion. the barber cannot bring himself to make a decision, as he is deeply conflicted between his loyalty to the revolution and his becoming a murderer. he is also unsure as to whether the assassination will in fact make any difference to the political situation.
