Briefcase” is a story of omission; the structure deep beneath the surface of the printed word floating on a page. Makkai’s war time setting is like a treatise on life.

On my fourteenth birthday, my friends, my mom, and I went to target so I could go pick out a video game for a birthday present. All my friends were telling me to get the brand new Call of Duty and how it was so amazing and lifelike it was.

Symbolism is a part of human nature; it has been a form of communication long before the written language. Ideas are conveyed through symbolism. It is frequently used in pop culture today. Many songs and music videos have symbolism in them. The music video for “Wrecking Ball” by Miley Cyrus is symbolic for a destructive relationship.
