Have a little read: ... Twentieth Century Prose I have read five short stories by different authors, all the stories have been written in the twentieth century and I will be comparing all of the stories with each other. I will be comparing settings, themes, characters, moods, atmospheres and narrative techniques. I will also be saying if each author's technique makes a better impression on the story. The stories I read are ' The secret life of Walter Mitty ' by James Thurber, ' Indian Camp' by Ernest Hemingway, ' The peaches' by Dylan Thomas, ' The trout' by Sean O'Faolain and 'Go down, Moses' by William Faulkner Settings ' The secret life of Walter Mitty' seems to be set in the mid twentieth century, this is because at the beginning of the story after the first dream we find the main character Walter sitting in a car, cars were made in the late twentieth century not early.
