Annotation
Defines the story’s hospitality-focused incident as a continuation of an archetypal plot used by several other canonical writers, including Jack London, Joseph Conrad, and Homer. Explores this archetype more deeply in other reminiscences found in the story, suggesting that knowledge of this context helps us to understand the leopard carcass and Harry’s death flight.
