The Sniper Compare And Contrast

We all have our own opinions on what is right and wrong and what makes us feel sympathetic or considerate to what is going on around us. No matter how much you dislike or look down on decisions and judgements of your neighbor we all have certain traits that make us resemble others. The Sniper and Lather and nothing else are two different short stories that at first seem completely different, but after looking deeper into them they may not be as different as they may seem. Before comparing these two stories you might ask yourself, How could two different time periods relate to each other? And can places on opposite parts of the world share the same issues?
