Coming-of-age or initiation stories often parallel the journey of classical heroes. The young protagonist is beset with a conflict, takes a journey–sometimes physical but always metaphorical–experiences an epiphany, and returns “home” forever changed. Discuss this theme of change as it relates to the protagonist “Araby” by James Joyce. Your thesis statement should convey the essence of what the change is. You must develop that thesis in the body paragraphs, using at least two direct quotations from the original source. Do not simply retell the plot of the story. What is required is your analysis and interpretation.
