    Essay on Author’s Craft: “Marigolds” In “Marigolds,” Eugenia W. Collier uses symbolism to develop the theme that “One cannot have both innocence and compassion(Collier pg 22).” Innocence clouds people of hate, sorrow and pain. “I scrambled to my feet and just stood there and stared at her, and that was the moment when childhood faded and womanhood began.

The readers get little, if any, description of the male characters beyond their names.…
