Need to write an essay, only 750 words but you will be required to read a minimum of  three short stories prior to writing this essay (3 to 5 depending on the topic questions). Chose any one of the given topic questions and answer them in an essay format. Also include some quotations and write the authors last name (King) and page number in brackets after the quote. 

The topic questions are as follows:

3) How important is Thomas king's understanding of stereotypes in terms of what he is trying to accomplish? you will want to refer to the "Joe the Painter" story as well as others, in your answer. 

4) What are some of the common images that Thomas king's stories use? Is his use of imagery meant to convey an argument in his stories, or is it incidental? This question is best answered by reference to the "Coyote" Stories as well as "Corporal Colin Sterling".
