1. “The Gold Coin” and “Fur Coat” are a pairing of caselets which exhibit the theme of an offering. This theme may be described as when a party is offered something (or in this case, advertised something as an offer), and the other party does not follow through with completing the exchange.

Aust Under Milk Wood and My Dinner With Andre are two very different texts that relate in very many ways. Under Milk Wood was written by the poet Dylan Thomas and was a radio drama written in 1954 and was written “purely for voices”(Birch 121).
