Compare, contrast Gorilla, My love and The Glasstower

Both Gorilla, My Love and The Glasstower have many similarities and differences. Both Arenas and Bambara are contempary writers published in The Art of the Story. They write about main characters that show different personalities and characteristics throughout the story. Alfredo shows his other side when all of the characters in his head start to come out. Hazel started as a tomboy and soon became emotional when she find out her uncle was getting married. Arenas grew up in Cuba while Bambara grew up in the United States. Also the language of the story shows many differences. One is very formal while the other is written in a southern draw.
