What story/stories are you referring to?
short stories memoirs by ernesto gaarza and rusell baker
Memoirs are not just regular stories or fairytales. They are flashbacks in a persons’ life that has stuck with them and are important to them. Every memoir is different and alike in more than one way. “Barrio Boy” and “No Gumption” are two of these memoirs
Both of these stories share the same conflicts and are written in first person. They also seem too have the same values in their lessons.
Alexis, you know that if a K12 teacher finds this and sees you cheating, they will give you a failing grade because you asked here (i'm looking for help on the last part too, but at least I input "anonymous"). Please, PLEASE do not put your real name on these posts, otherwise teachers will fail you like they did to that person who asked the same question on the last jiskha forum I visited.

To compare and contrast the stories "Bario Boy" and "No Gumption" and analyze the relationship between the authors' choices and depictions, you would need to read and understand both stories. Here's how you can approach this task:
1. Read both stories: Start by finding and reading the stories "Bario Boy" by Carlos Bulosan and "No Gumption" by Russell Baker. You can find these stories in a book or search for them online.
2. Identify the subject matter: As you read the stories, pay attention to the main ideas, themes, and subject matter that each author explores. For example, "Bario Boy" focuses on the experiences of Filipino immigrants in America, while "No Gumption" depicts the author's struggles with motivation and ambition.
3. Analyze the authors' choices: Once you have a clear understanding of the subject matter in each story, examine the choices made by the authors in their writing. Consider their use of language, narrative structure, characterization, and any relevant literary devices. Identify how these choices contribute to the storytelling and the portrayal of the subject matter.
4. Compare and contrast: Look for similarities and differences between the two stories. How do the authors approach similar themes or ideas? Are there any contrasting elements in terms of writing style, tone, or character development?
5. Relate choices to subject matter: Finally, connect the authors' choices and depictions to the subject matter of their respective stories. Examine how these choices enhance the meaning and impact of the stories. Consider whether the authors' writing styles complement or diverge from the themes they explore.
By following these steps, you can thoroughly analyze how "Bario Boy" and "No Gumption" are alike, different, and how the authors' choices and depictions relate to the subject matter in their stories.
