"Her name is Marcia"?
Unless it is apart of the quotation, always put punctuation outside
Here: I'll show you how I started it; “Poor Fish” certainly entails a conflict within oneself, as the main character displays his insecurity in the way of how people view him, especially women. This form of conflict, individual vs. self, is the most important because it comprises the basis of the story, along with its theme. Since the theme of the short story is that love is blind, the main character undergoes a series of change among his conflict within himself. His girlfriend, Ida, happens to help him with this change, and for the better. The author of this short story, Alberto Moravia (1907-1990), pen name for Alberto Pincherle, wrote “Poor Fish” in regard for the Italian visual flair of physical perfection, for beauty was their virtue. He accounted for a story of the need to want to be physically admirable, and in a successful way when discussing the exploration of the conflict the narrator had with himself. A few reasons the author successfully portrayed the conflict of individual vs. self includes the insecurity the main character has with himself, the uncertainty of Ida’s adoration for him, and the final acceptance of her love for him. These points in the story actually also represent the conflict, climax, and resolution of the story in exact order. --This is the start of my essay to answer the question, so just go from there and find a few quotes to support your answer (AND PLEASE reword it so we both do not get in trouble for sharing answers) hope this helps.
It has a positive connotation, suggesting the astrophysicist’s long-lasting and innocent fascination with the universe.

The Monkey's Paw" is set in the White family home in England. It begins on a dark and stormy night, so we know we're in for a scary story. The Whites – Mr. and Mrs. White and their adult son Herbert – are inside enjoying a cozy evening around the fire.
Soon Sergeant-Major Morris arrives. He's been in the army in India for the past 21 years. He tells the Whites stories of his adventures in that faraway land and shows them a monkey's paw that has the power to grant three wishes. Mr. White wants the paw, but Morris tells him it's cursed – people get hurt when their wishes are granted. He tries to burn the paw in the fire, but Mr. White snatches it up and buys it. After Morris leaves, Mr. White, following Herbert's suggestion, wishes for two hundred pounds, the amount of money he would need to pay off the bank and own the house outright.
The next morning, Herbert goes off to work as usual and Mrs. White watches for the two hundred pounds to show up. In the afternoon, a fancily dressed man pays the Whites a visit. He is from Maw and Meggins, the company Herbert works for. The man tells the Whites that Herbert has been killed in a machinery accident. (We aren't given details of Herbert's work, but the clues suggest that he works in some kind of factory.) The man says that the company takes no blame for Herbert's death but wants to give the Whites some money to help with their loss. You can probably guess how much money the man gives the Whites. That's right, two hundred pounds. Mrs. White screams and Mr. White faints.
Full of sadness over Herbert's death, Mr. and Mrs. White bury him in the cemetery two miles from their home. One night Mrs. White gets a bright idea: use those other two wishes to bring Herbert back! She shares her plan with Mr. White. He thinks it's a bad idea – he could barely look at Herbert's mangled body when he went to identify it. His wife really turns up the heat, though, and he caves in. Mr. White pulls out the cursed monkey's paw and wishes Herbert back to life.
Nothing happens, so the Whites go back to bed. Soon after, someone – or something – starts pounding on the door. Mrs. White is sure it's Herbert – it just took him a minute to get there from the cemetery. Mr. White is sure it's Herbert too, and he doesn't want his son to get in the house, so he makes his third wish on the monkey's paw. (We aren't told what it is.) The knocking stops. Mr. White hears Mrs. White open the door. He hears her scream out in agony because Herbert is not there. He goes outside with her and sees that the road is completely empty.
