Please read all interlinkage then write about 300 words discussion about

John Updike (Links to an external site.) “A&P (Links to an external site.)” and Sherman Alexie (Links to an external site.) “This is What it Means to Say Phoenix, Arizona (Links to an external site.)”

These two stories are very much “coming of age (Links to an external site.)” stories. What does that mean? What do these protagonists learn along their journeys? Also, Alexie chooses Phoenix as the destination deliberately. Phoenix isn’t just a place, it’s a mythical creature. What is a phoenix, and how is that symbolic in the story?
