The poem uses dialect to convey the tone and mood. It also uses refrain, "ain't been no crystal stair" as emphasis. It adds imagery to the reader, "splinters" "tacks" "boards torn up" "places with no carpet" and "bare" which rhymes with stair. After "and places with no carpet on the floor-"
"bare"
The "-" adds a pause, adds emphasis to the exasperation and gives the reader time to take a breath.
"I'se a been a-climbin on" shows strength in the face of hardship. It contributes to the author's purpose by conveying the tone and mood of a working class, black person facing struggles of poverty and misfortune.

A Complication or Two
denis-greek [22]

The theme in the story is that some misfortunes are blessings in disguise, and the narrator develops it by recounting the events that led to a fulfilled life.

<h3>What is theme?</h3>

In literature, we call theme that important message that underlies a text. The theme is, in other words, the idea or lesson the author wishes to teach us through his or her writing.

After reading the story "A Complication or Two," we could identify a theme concerning misfortunes and how they may turn out to be blessings in disguise. The author unfolds that theme through the events in the story. The narrator met his wife because of a misfortune - the rejection letter from his dream university. In the end, all of his plans changed, but he found happiness nonetheless.

As the narrator says:

  • "But there’s no doubt that some misfortunes turn into pivotal moments that can alter the course of a person’s life for the better."
